    Today Show/NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein
    by Mark Finkelstein June 27, 2006 The Seer of MSNBC hath spoken: no matter how good the news might be now for President Bush, he will be in worse shape come the November elections. That was Chris Matthews' reading of the entrails on this morning's Today show. Guest-hosting David Gregory interviewed him, and, sounding the same theme we saw over at this morning's Early Show, cast the controversy over the latest leak of an anti-terror program not as a threat to national security, but as "this attack on the New York Times."

    Sen. Mark Dayton is being mocked back home for closing his Capitol Hill office because of his professed fear of a terrorist strike, with his state's largest newspaper calling him a "Cassandra," a "flake" and a "little chicken."     The Minnesota Democrat's action has "been the talk of talk radio around here," said Randy Wanke, communications director for the Minnesota Republican Party.     A frequent topic on the airwaves last month was the senator's boycott of Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi's address to Congress. Republicans say Mr. Dayton is merely living up to his 90 percent lifetime rating by the liberal...
