Matthews: If Hillary Drops Out of Race, I'm Ending 'Hardball' Run

Is that a promise, Chris?

Tonight on MSNBC, mocking the notion that Hillary Clinton's e-mail server woes may eventually push her out of the presidential campaign, Hardball host Chris Matthews sneered that when that happens, he'd wrap his Hardball program. 

MSNBC
Hardball
August 19, 2015; 7:16 p.m. Eastern

KELLYANNE CONWAY, Republican strategist: ...I do want her to hang on. I do, and here's why. I worry that if she gets pushed out of the race too early, Chris, then, you've got Elizabeth Warren stepping in, she's got plenty of time to raise the money and take that mantle.

CHRIS MATTHEWS, host: You think that's going to happen?

CONWAY: But let's get back to the word electable. This is so important to a conservative like me to hear--

CHRIS MATTHEWS, host: Just before we go off into the crazy car again, do you actually think Elizabeth Warren is eventually going to go into this race?

KELLYANNE CONWAY: If Hillary is truly damaged and if she exits on her own, yes.

MATTHEWS: OK, thank you for the if.

CONWAY: Why not?

MATTHEWS: We're waiting right now-- No, no, there's a lot of if there. When Hillary Clinton quits this election, we're going to shut down this show, OK?

Its a bluff. Like Alex Baldwin, Tim Robbins, Rosie O’Donnell, Susan Sarandon, Streisand, and other lunatic liberals said they would leave the USA if GWB was elected. Sheer bravado. Sheer bluff. Sheer bee esse

Actually I think he might very well be a conservative.

He has this on his twitter page.

Hillary who?

Heck, all Hillary has to do is to claim being half-black, maybe even full-black, and all of her sins will be forgiven and she’ll easily with the presidency. Matthews will eat it up,and get another tingle up his leg.

Wait, you mean Chris Matthews isn’t an unbiased journalist?

Someone needs to notify the Fairness Doctrine people.

Spewing spitting Chris really? Promise! MSNBC will only have Sharpton to do the crap they call news on this failed network! And By the Way ..what happen to Sharpton? He looks like a bobble-head with a miniature body! One thing hasn't changed, that big mouth still spews hatred! Wow Saw him for the first time in awhile!

Too bad he couldn’t be held to that. No way that that talentless boob would quit his meaningless job.

>> I still can’t believe many years ago that Rush used [Chris Mattews] as a guest host when Rush was away from his radio <<

Let’s remember that Matthews was rabidly anti-Clinton in those days. When it came to anti-clinton vitriol back then, almost nobody did it better.

Still, at virtually the same time, Rush was frequently reminding callers who liked Chris that Chris was a deeply committed left-wing Democrat.

Maybe it’s just another historical anomaly where we may never have a good answer.

Whatever.
