1. Don't forget
Jim Lehrer, Gwen Ifill, over at PBS (remeber where you got good TV without paying for it?). They always have interesting panels and guests with varied points of view and reasonable discussion.

4. I used to love the NewsHour...
I don't get it now, as I don't have teevee anymore. It used to be my favorite show though. I even spent about $200 to get a McNeill/Lehrer NewsHour coffee mug during a pledge drive. Man, I loved that mug, lol.

9. Always bright and thoughtful. I don't have to agree with him to appreciate him.
I don't care where you are on the political spectrum, when he speaks, you pay attention.

8. Gergen takes great pride in being the calm guru of American politics
he doesn't have a dog in any fight and I really trust what he has to say...even if it's something I haven't wanted to hear (that's not lately, though......)

11. I don't get why Kos "called" VA before the votes were even in.
He gave no reason other than Mark Warner won. So fucking what. We may win Virginia but I don't get why he made such a firm statement with no commentary. WTF?
