The MSNBC "Hardball" host had more explaining to do after Clinton's victory when he said that the reason Clinton is a candidate for president "is that her husband messed around."
Matthews was the focal point for the anger many women felt at how Clinton's candidacy seemed to be written off with lightning speed following a loss in Iowa and foreboding poll numbers in New Hampshire. He is a man and he is ever sure of himself.
He also had a history: The liberal watchdog Media Matters for America counted more than eight negative remarks Matthews made about Clinton for every positive one during September, October and November.
Matthews appeared on Joe Scarborough's morning MSNBC show ...
"Let's not forget, and I'll be brutal, the reason she's a U.S. senator, the reason she's a candidate for president, the reason she may be a frontrunner, is that her husband messed around," ...
Bam!
That quote raced around the Internet and unleashed a fresh round of anger toward Matthews at a time emotions were already frayed.

“Ive always refered to her as Castro with cellulite.”
When I saw Hillary Clinton crying it made me think that she is a natural born dicator. Being overly emotional at the prospect of losing, crying for herself, and thereby getting people to do whatever she wants. In retrospect, it seemed very cunning. I am still praying to God and our Lord and Savior that we do not deserve this dictator. There are still some decent people left in this country, and I am praying that the manipulative shrew be brought to shame.
Oh, Oh! I put those poor people in jeopardy by posting their pictures, lol.
Heading to bed, thanks for the comments!
This ?
As I am seated at the table with Matthews, who I am meeting for the first time, he cracks a joke—and not in a well-meaning way—about how I look. (There are quite a few people who are hung up on this.) “Are you sure you are old enough to be on the show? What are you? 28?” I grit my teeth. He badgers me again with the same question. I politely answer his question and supply my age.
I wonder how Matthews’ wife, the respected TV journalist Kathleen Matthews, who hosts a show about working women, would react if informed about her husband’s treatment of a fellow female journalist.
I’ve been in the business a dozen years and would be happy to talk to Mrs. Matthews about my firsthand experience with Neanderthal chauvinism in the workplace.
Clintonoids don’t like that Matthews is a partisan hack? Well, they’ve always got the Associated Press.
I just LOVE IT! when the Demis fight—:-D
There is a tendency to get giddy about all of this liberal vs. liberal rhetoric, but make no mistake; when the Democrat convention has annointed its standard bearer, the MSM and other party loyalists will unrelentingly march in lock step against whoever gets the Republican nomination. The lies, the spin and the endless repetition of the Republican’s flaws or faux pas, real, imagined or fabricated, will fill every news show and newspapers headline, ad infinitum, ad nauseam.
I just don't see her winning. If, by chance, she looses the nomonation, there is no doubt that the Clintonistas and their surrogates will brutally savage whoever the Dems pick.
Ha Ha! That Rats are all ripping each other apart. :)
THAT is some hysterical stuff!!! ROTF!
And the Democrat candidates will be kissing and making up like it's Valentine's Day.
The only thing that seems almost impossible now because of the bickering on the Democrat side is a Clinton-Obama or Obama-Clinton ticket, which David Letterman has been wishing for. It's hard to imagine Hillary choosing Obama as a running mate now after saying Obama's campaign is about FALSE hope and after her cigar-toting husband told Charlie Rose that Obama is not ready to run for president. If Obama isn't ready to be president, he's not ready to be vice president, either. And there are about 1,000 good reasons Obama would never choose to run with Hillary.
This must have interrupted their ongoing card game with the Maytag Repairman.
I get the feeling that a lot of these rat pundits want anybody but Hillary because they realize that Hillary could never be elected President in a million years.
To the DBM, the 2008 election is not Dem vs. Republican... it's Clinton vs. Obama(Marxist Totalitarian vs. Marxist Socialist)
Yep! There used to be a time when you couldn’t get his lips off her posterior because the suction was so strong...
But the word went down from the top of the far Left dung heap that she was “out” and Obama was the new Flavor of the Year.
and he’s been doing his best, along with many other apparat
to sink her,and float the new Pied Piper, Obama. It’s been going on for a while...The Hollywood Rats have been coaching as well as funding, SNL did their bit...It’s attrition diguised as “tolerance” to a new “voice”, to “compete” with the tired old Clinton “triangulation”.
Yes, and in general her treatment of her on the air during the Swift Boat Vets period.
The liberal watchdog Media Matters for America counted more than eight negative remarks Matthews made about Clinton for every positive one during September, October and November.Wait until the Clintons are back in the WH. Keeping score of "negative remarks made about Clintons" will be a major pillar of their domestic policy. And this time around they've got the Patriot Act as a tool to really crack down on all that rampant anti-Clinton negativity.
In December 2007, One of Matthews shows had him Laughing about Mr. Clinton’s recent lies.
