Yep, yep.

Only good thing is that MSNBC and CNN together have twice the viewers that Fox has. I am aligned politically with him, but even Keith Oberman is getting on my nerves. CSPAN is always a good choice.

I've seen Olbermann get on his own nerves a few times lately. I agree with him on many things, but even he's self-referenced himself as "nearly syncophantic" regarding the Obamas.

I had to go that route the other night. Too much analysis.

Last night I went with the regular NBC team of Williams and Brokaw after the MSNBC panel completely shit the bed on me; honestly, i'm not sure what they were watching. i'm also prone to flip over to Fox just to see what they're saying. also, as i texted Loogs last night, Fox is where you go if you want to see the convention through the eyes of Real Americans. :D

MSNBC has the "rally around the Dems" group, plus Buchanan, who pushes them to act as crazy as possible.

My favorite thing is that Joe Scarborough is almost openly campaigning against McCain on Morning Joe.

i can't see how anyone can sit through one of these speeches with all the applause interrupting it every 12 seconds.

crazy that the cops wouldn't let the protesters leave for 2 hours.

also, that girl at 1:13 is possibly living in a dream world.

I miss MSNBC due to the shitty cable system here. Who's Morning Joe shilling for these days- Buchanan? Jeb Bush? The corpse of Claude Kirk?

I generally enjoy Olbermann, but he's been awful. He's much better when no one is paying attention. Like Tony Romo.

Joe's digusted with Bush and actually admires Obama even if his politics are much different. It's been bizarre but fascinating to watch that process. And Buchanan has almost become Hillary's protective Uncle Pat. Never thought I'd see that happen.

I think Joe and Pat were True Believers and they view the current administration as incompent charlatans.

That ridiculous roll call vote came to an end with Hillary and NY and Dailey and Illinois.
Barry is the man by acclamation!

He'll be back on the east coast with his pudding ring to tickle the parts you want soon enough Christos. Ring him up.
