MSNBC host Rachel Maddow and her producers didn’t have much luck with Christine O’Donnell’s campaign staff in Delaware on Tuesday.
“Ejected from O’Donnell HQ,” Maddow wrote on Twitter. “Staffer insulted producers Bill & Laura then angry man came outside and told us to leave and not come back.”
So Bill Wolff, the show’s executive producer and MSNBC’s senior vice president for prime-time programming, along with producer Laura Conaway, traveled to the Republican Senate hopeful’s headquarters to speak with someone from the campaign. They did not go inside with a camera crew. Maddow said “they were greeted nicely by what appeared to be two junior staffers” but were “then insulted by a senior staffer” and left the building.
Next, she said, “an angry guy followed them out and told us loudly that we all had to leave the premises and not come back.” Maddow continued: “Other than that, Delaware’s great!”
Maddow was outside the headquarters at the time. The liberal host explained that “part of the reason we kept me outside was to avoid any drama or upset with the campaign staffers, so much for that.”
The incident may be addressed on tonight’s show. Maddow said her staff is “having a hilariously hard time finding anyone — ANYONE — from Delaware, who will talk with us re: O’Donnell.”

Oh, quit whining. Your network insults conservative Americans 24/7 (well...excepting the infomercials); and you've got the b*lls to bitch when the tables are turned? Suck it up, Madcow...rude SOB's don't get access. I'd like to see a LOT more of this...
Good. Why the hell should Christine appear on MSNBC...she needs to be talking to Delaware voters; not the crowd that trashed the WWII Memorial over the weekend...
