I always say I'm never going to watch Matthews but I did catch that when I got home yesterday. He let Green spew his BS and then tore him up.

Mark Green is a washed up old New York liberal loser. He was a one time Congressman who since then has lost elections for the Senate and Mayor, and now he's running for the dem nod for New York State Attorney General against Andrew Cuomo, another loser.

I must give Chris Matthews full credit for asking a tough question of an interviewee. Of course, what makes this stand out is a longstanding failure on Matthews' part as with his colleagues to do this in the past. The missed opportunities are legion. However, good behavior should be rewarded and encouraged. It may surprise Matthews to know that he would gain our respect if he did this consistently, regardless of the party of his guest. I don't mean gotcha questioning but rather tough questioning that shows prep-work in understanding the issue and being relevant with the followup.

Chris must be back on the wagon.
The Dems are in DEEP trouble if he, former aide to Tip O'Neil, is not swallowing their talking points.

Worth repeating...
Hoping this isn't a case of even a blind squirrel finding a nut sometime...

The slow ratings speed talking conman must not feel threatened by a bigger loser than himself.

Yeah... but did you see him ask the question to Goldberg? Chrissie's 'question' was based on DNC talking-points and a NYSlimes article that was pure speculation.
Mathews is a two-bit, DNC press-titute... if he see's you're on to him... he'll change the subject

How refreshing it is to see a genuine lib who can stay on point and on the facts. But I wouldn't expect a conversion here. Sometimes it is tactical to retreat and pounce again later. Besides, it doesn't hurt him if it gives him an audience bump. Even NPR will throw family conservatives a bone every now and then, especially during fundraising season.

You should send your remarks to hardball@msnbc.com . Like you, I feel Chris misses most of the time. He should not let lies and innuendo pass for good reporting - ever!

The unusual thing about Matthews is that what he followed up on is in fact unusual.
It's a start, let's see how long this unusual (but factual)questioning lasts.
