MSNBC: No Rosie, So Who Should It Be

[maseman]

Who would you vote for putting on after Keith Olbermann? There's so many great hosts out there.

Ed Schultz, Thom Hartmann, Cenk Uygur, etc. Who else?

[maddiejoan]

1. Rachel Maddow

should have approached her to begin with.

[Little Star]

46. I agree!!! She is smart, Witty and has a brain!

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

2. Rachel Maddow, Janeane Garafolo, etc.

[maseman]

7. Maddow

I agree Maddow would be a very nice choice. No way on Janeane Garafolo. I like her, I agree with her points, terrible host. She can never seem to get a thought out in any kind of smooth delivery. Rachel has a great delivery.

[tularetom]

3. Who else could they choose

but Rachel Maddow?

[earth mom]

4. I'm sad about this. NO one is gonna tell the truth like Rosie.

This is what we have to look forward to:

:nuke:

[TheUniverse]

42. So conspiracy nutjobs are the ones telling the truth?

[Mutineer]

47. No shit.

That was the LAST thing we needed, Rosie spouting off her stupid 9/11 whackjob conspiracy theories. I'm thrilled that she won't be allowed to do damage to our side in a public forum.

[muntrv]

5. Al Franken.

[Yukari Yakumo]

36. He's a little busy right now. {nt}

uguu

[KAZ]

6. Rachel! Hate to be redundant, but well, I love her! n/t

[Quixote1818]

8. Thom Hartmann nt

[JohnnyBoots]

51. I would even be happy if the just showed a recording of his radio show. If he gets on he would open

a lot of minds. It would be awesome.

[mmonk]

9. .

[bdamomma]

50. hmmmm she's another possibility too.

[TheDebbieDee]

10. Sam Seder and Janeane Garofalo..............

Or, just Sam Seder.

Or, Mike Malloy (does he even do TV?)!

[ecstatic]

11. put Donahue back on!!

I loved his angry white men segments. LOL

[Just-plain-Kathy]

14. Yes Donahue!! I love that guy!! :) ...n/t

[Olney Blue]

12. David Schuster could run a nice show.

[Quixote1818]

17. Great Suggestion! nt

[KAZ]

13. Yes, Ed Schultz is great too! We have a lot of amazing people ...

.. on our side.

[riverdeep]

15. Rachel Maddow. n/t

[Gold Metal Flake]

16. Rachel Maddow

Hartman has repeatedly stated he's not interested in TV. A video simulcast of Hartman's radio show? OK, but that ain't gonna work on MSNBC.

Rachel Maddow is the first, second and third choice. She's funny, highly intelligent, down to earth, looks good, has a great voice and has plenty of experience. She would surround herself with great contributors. She would be able to guide the development of the show. She would not get into pointless fights or have meltdowns. She is the total package.

[boomboom]

18. david shuster

[NC_Nurse]

19. Another vote for Rachel.

And put Schuster in Tucker's place.

[Bumblebee]

35. Yes, second that

[SlowDownFast]

20. Rachel Maddow.

She's good and already has a repertoire at MSNBC.

I thought there was rumor already a week or two ago that she was in?

on edit:

David Shuster as second choice.

[tsuki]

21. Phil Donahue.

[TheUniverse]

43. Do you think MSNBC deserves Phil Donahue after the way they treated him last time?

[tsuki]

44. They need to make amends. nt

[bdamomma]

49. didn't MSNBC treat him like crap.

I was thinking the same, but there are many more out there how about Greg Palast but didn't they ban him.

[SeattleGirl]

22. Rachel Maddow!!!

:bounce: :bounce:

[rurallib]

23. Maddow or Hartmann or for fun {{ Stephanie Miller }}

She and the mooks could be very entertaining.

[nedbal]

24. Garrison Keillor, Donahue, Hartman, Samantha Bee or Any DS Comedian

[Ilsa]

25. Hartmann or Maddow. nt

[Dave From Canada]

26. They should get all of them, and then rename the network Air America.

[bluethruandthru]

27. Rachel Maddow! n/t

Thom's great too!

[Captain Kronos]

28. It should be a Tag Team Show...

Maddow & Miller... Rachel & Stephanie!

[LiberalHeart]

29. Joe Conason. He's smart, he's liberal, and he takes no prisoners.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

30. Maddow!!!! eom

[Nomad559]

31. Rachel Maddow

with Ron Reagan as a co-host.



:)

[Kceres]

53. Yes, yes, perfect!

Rachel and Ron. Great idea!

[Malikshah]

32. Mama and the Mooks!!!!

[Silver Gaia]

33. Rachael Maddow. Definitely.

It's already evident in her segments with Olbermann that she has onscreen presence. She's smart. She's confidant. She would be perfect.

(I'm SO glad that the deal with Rosie fell through. That's NOT what we need.)

[Bumblebee]

34. Rachel hands down.

[Swamp Rat]

37. Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow

Did they hire her yet? :D

No?... Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow Rachel Maddow ad infinitum...................

[cboy4]

38. Rachel!

:bounce:

[ConsAreLiars]

39. No question at all. Rachel Maddow.

She has proven herself on the box with her appearances on MSNBC (and less often on CNN). Bring in Kent Jones and they will have a show that is insightful, informative, and entertaining. Of course, GE may not want that.

[JCMach1]

40. Bill Moyers!

[Nimrod2005]

41. Rachel of course

[ChairmanAgnostic]

45. a blank screen would improve upon Tucker nt

[Elspeth]

54. LOL!

:D

[bdamomma]

48. we should put this in a poll vote.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

55. agreed. and we need to include AnnC.

and michelleM just out of spite.

[moondust]

52. Maddow or Shuster.

Maybe even alternating days.

It would be a good thing to have a female in the evening lineup.

[sandnsea]

56. Rachel Maddow

It's a no-brainer.
