Excerpt-

The liberal commentator and Air America host, who has become a breakout star for the cable channel during this campaign, is taking over the 9 p.m. slot following Keith Olbermann, who she often subs for on "Countdown." Olbermann broke the news in what he called a "fully authorized leak" this afternoon on the left-wing Web site Daily Kos. Dan Abrams, the former MSNBC general manager who had been hosting "Verdict" at that hour, will continue as NBC's chief legal correspondent and will be a daytime anchor for MSNBC.

Ooooo... on a roll maybe... does this mean that Dan Abrams’ hair piece also gets its own show?

[REDWOOD99]

She’s such a handsome woman.

[Charles Henrickson]

Maddow, who lives with her girlfriend Susan Mikula in Manhattan and Northampton, Mass., may also be the first openly gay woman to host a prime-time program. . . . "lesbian policy wonk. . . ."

Rachel Madcow Lesbian Policy Wonk Alert!

If you or Paul want to do a DUFU on the DUmmie reaction to Maddow, go ahead. This woman makes me physically ill so I can’t do a DUFU on her since I avoid her like the plague.

She looks a lot like KD Lang.

I have never seen or heard Rachel Madcow--we don't have cable, and I don't watch much television anyways--so you or Paul may be more qualified to do a DUFU on her. Here is the DUmmie reaction thread, currently at the TOP of their "Greatest" list:

Rachel Maddow to Replace Dan Abrams on MSNBC

[Cold Heat]

Gawwwd..................

I don't watch that goofy channel, but catch some of it when flippin through the news channels and that woman is as far left as left goes and only slightly more palatable then Kieth Doberman, (the worst person in the world).

[Cold Heat]

She looks a lot like KD Lang.

She "is" KD with a bigger mouth.

[Charles Henrickson]

Actually, that thread is currently SECOND on their "Greatest" list. But there are a couple OTHER Rachel Madcow threads also high on their "Greatest" list:

Keith Olbermann:Rachel GETS HER OWN MSNBC Show

Rachel Maddow to Replace Dan Abrams on MSNBC

And there even a few more Madcow threads over in the DUmp.

[Polyxene]

MSNBC = Air America with pictures

[Colonel Kangaroo]

I don’t like this, shes not as crazy as that keith idiot. Hopefully people will ignore her

I'm convinced that when more people in the undecided mainstream watch these virulent leftists on their shows, the more votes the left loses. A session with Olbermann's show every couple of weeks reminds me why I am a conservative.

[GPSkins]

Olbie’s ego is even bigger than I thought. MSNBC just got even more left-wing....if that was even possible.
