Scarborough Nostalgic For '98 Election, When Rush Was Wrong And Dems Had 'Glorious Night'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

If you hadn't noticed, Joe Scarborough's transformation from hardcore conservative to partisan Democrat is complete.

On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough waxed nostalgic over the 1998 midterm elections, when Rush Limbaugh was wrong in anticipating a Republican triumph after the Year of Lewinsky, and instead, Democrats enjoyed what Scarborough described as a "glorious night."

Scarborough also revealed that HE VOTED A STRAIGHT DEMOCRAT TICKET 16 YEARS AGO!

Scarborough is just what Liz Cheney hopes to be. A Turncoat with a mic.

Pro Tip: If a guy tells you that decades ago back when he was saying he was a conservative he was elated to see a glorious election win for democrats he was lying about being a conservative.

Its what they watch inside the Beltway to get the right spin for the day just like the read Politico to get the meme of the day in case they get asked.

Scarborough was a Republican Congressman then.

And he was rooting for the Democrats?

He was also on his first marriage then.

To find this out I googled “Chuck Scarborough” before I realized my mistake.

Maybe he can work himself into cardiac arrest tonight and the 2022 election will be a night to remember too! ~ the ghost of Betty White

Why does he need to go back that far?

2018 is far more recent, and the same thing happened then.
Our self-appointed experts wound up getting egg all over their faces after spending the prior 2 years with dislocated shoulders from patting themselves on the back so often after “predicting” (hoping, wishing, dreaming, then getting lucky, etc.) 2016 correctly.

Basically he’s been a fraud his whole life.
Probably what Mika found him so appealing.

he was lying about being a conservative.

They all are. Pretty much every politician and pundit claiming to be conservative is posing to get votes or an audience.

98 was a weird year. The internet was really changing things, and the dot com bubble was still expanding. The Lewinsky issue fired up both sides.

2022 - Economy is in the dumps. Inflation high. Crime high. Abortion not the issue Democrats hoped. I’m not expecting a tsunami...that would be 54+ Senators. But I would be happy with 51 or 52.
