I'm curious how MSNBC reacted, though not curious enough to get cable.
I bet Chrissy was deeply saddened, and I heard Andrea Mitchell looked very glum.
Is it just me or does she have the "radiance" of a cadaver?
Andrea Mitchell interviewed Rudy after Sarah's speech and asked him something like whether he was going over the top in his attacks on Bambi, considering the fact that 18 million voters voted for him. Rudy's response was great, something along the lines of "No, only half of the rat primary voters voted for him...he barely won..."
Andrea Mitchell interviewed Guiliani that was still completely on point and hammering effectively to her when she asked, using snippy and snipey descriptive words regarding Sarah's speech to Guiliani. I think Andrea either drinks on the job or takes some sort of drugs as she is often a big slurry or maybe just mentally sort of slow. Whatever it is she is old, tired, and not an effective journalist. She needs to retire. Yawn.
MSNBC was very riled afterward. A couple pundits made a point of repeating over and over that she hadn’t written the speach and another kept complaining about the sarcasm. Too much sarcasm (especially since it was so biting and true). Olbermann was restrained and Brokaw was very fair in his assessment. Brian Williams was upset with her and tried to throw a few digs her way - let see how she performs without a written speach type of thing. The same criticism Obama should be hearing but is not.
Krissy looked like he just got a cancer diagnosis. He was even pleading with Oberdork, as if to say, “Don’t you get it - we are #*&^ed.”
