really enjoyed your take on the Lauer interview with Gray and Susan Davis. Here was my take on it:

"Davis being interviewed by Matt Lauer. Gray Davis is trying to blame California's woes on the Bush administration. Well, that's it in a nutshell..."when Bush came into office there were surpluses "as far as the eye could see". Matt asks, "so you think California's woes are a microcosm of what will happen to the rest of the country. And Matt says, "I read on Matt Drudge that the Clintons are coming to help you". hahaha

davis says Republicans are just relitigating the election, they had these recall petitions on the street 30 days after the election. Matt Lauer says, "you'll pardon me, but it sounds like you both (Gray and his wife Sharon), are claiming a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

"The recall is a misguided effort by very rich Republicans", says Davis.

I'm not kidding folks, Matt Lauer interviewing Gray and Sharon Davis had the look of the famous 60 Minutes interview of Bill and Hillary. Sitting all sweet and cuddly, happy, grinning, on a sofa, claiming everything is rosy, they gonna win, and everyone is just out to get them."

Sounds like we had a very similar take on the interview.

Am I wrong, or was this among the most fawning interviews Lauer has ever conducted? It really seemed to approach Couric-interviews-Hillary heights of servility.

The bad news is – Bill and Hillary were right.
