Bob Shrum stops Norah O’Donnell from waxing stupid before giving way to some talk about the Republican Senate offering the world to Joe Lieberman in order to prevent Democrat control. Finally, the clip ends with some pretty hearty laughter from Chris Matthews and the gang.
Am I the only one who thinks that joe lieberman should just wear a sheep suit over his wolfie self already? “Independent” my arse.
And Chris Matthews has the weirdest laugh ever.
Norah O’Donnell is nice-looking lady.
But her comment here was wrong. She’s assuming, and not without some justification, that once the Democrats take charge, there will be all manner of infighting and messiness.
Bull.
1)They’ve been waiting for this chance for so long, there’s no way they’re not going to fall in line
2)Pelosi will CRACK THE WHIP. She’s a good leader.
3)Bob Shrum was right; all this gossip O’Donnell was bringing up was pointless. Pelosi doesn’t like Jane Harman? So what? All these petty disagreements will be shelved. Like Olbermann said, washed away in the ocean that is the business of governing.
How long before the doofus punditocracy starts waxing rhapsodic about “the new disciplined Democrats”? Just wait, it’s coming. I just wonder what dunce will “coin” this meme first. Jonah Goldberg? Joe Klein? Bob Woodward? Who knows. Anybody want to start a pool?
