Matthews Chortles: "Is McCain too Hot....Is Obama too Cool" he thinks
that's the crux of the problem with voters.

Is GE Conspiring to FIX the VOTE? If Obama is too Cool and McCain is too Hot...then it's the "Goldilocks Scenario."

So...is GE giving the word to vote for Nader or that guy who is running on the Repug Side as a Libertarian Reformer?

Or is Matthews trying to make it seem so bad he depresses the vote so you just "throw up your hands" and say "there's no difference?"

The "Shadow Government" running McCorporate Media and Communist (the
"State Will Own ALL") Wall Street?

1. I don't know how people can stand to watch Matthews
he just blathers on. He's about as deep as the shallow end of the pool.

6. Folks who can't stand Faux Repug News or CNN (the War is Good Channel) have to have somewhere to go.
So they go to MSNBC...if they are political junkies.

2. Same treasonous script every four years
when they want to depress the vote on behalf of the crooked GOP.

3. I'll tell you something I learned last week
I saw Robert Reich speaking in person as part of a lecture series, last week. He told us about a time earlier in the week when he was on cable 'news' somewhere, and he had, as all talking heads do, an imperceptible earphone on. Through the earphone, the producer was speaking to Reich, during the interview, saying, "Get angry! Get angry!"

Bottom line: It's about ratings. It's about the horserace. It's about yelling and excitement and anything that will make a viewer with a remote stay on that channel. It's about news that will never come from an ENTERTAINER like Chris Matthews. The news is cancelled. There is no tv news. Sad, huh?

5. You mean when he looks off to the "side" and seems to click into a different mode?
Yeah...he's done that for years. He depends on his producer to "cue him" is what you are saying?
