Pleasantly surprised to see this little bit included...

I'm sure they meant it in a bad way.

Do they mean non-judicial nominations like Bolton's too?

Yeah, me too. They usually try to say the world is coming to an end .. this is refreshing.

I, too, was surprised to see that there.

It's some kind of sign of capitulation. I'm not sure whose, but MSNBC is normally a mouthpiece for the MSM.

Could it mean that they think they've lost, and they're doing some early reclamation work?
