Powers is an idiot, was unprepared and apparently was just expecting she’d get a pass for being a token liberal.
kinda hot, though
Gotta disagree, my friend, and actually, it’s a good thing. Aside from being one of the few reasonably attractive and feminine Dem talking heads, Powers is farily, intelligent, an asture political operative, and more towards the center than the vast majority of Dems. In the past, she’s been willing to criticize the Obama administration often. The fact that she attempted to dismiss the Philly Black Panther voter intimidation video as “move on, no big deal here,” IMHO shows just how much the Dems fear that it will in fact become a REALLY BIG DEAL, and blow up in their faces.. Powers is a Fox regular, often appears on the panel on Bret’s show, and has even done the Fox News Sunday show a few times...so she’s one of the semi-regulars. I think she thought she’d be allowed to spout her blather as a counter to the GOP talking head, with Megyn as the “fair and balanced” moderator. What changed the dynamic was when Megyn became actively involed in the debate, and took off on Powers, saying that Powers didn’t know “what she was talking about” and effectively calling her an idiot on live TV..That’s just not done..
I think there’s more to the story.
I can understand Megan being POd about Kirstin trying to buffalo her, and to insinuate that she didn’t think this as a big deal,
BUT
I’m wondering if there was some friction between these two behind the scenes, that escalated to a boiling point.
Of late, I’ve found Kirstin fairly coherent and reasonable, although she is a pro Hillary democrat/liberal and all arguments begin there.
