Matthews Still Thinks Blockbuster Around, Intros Woman as 'Haley Barbour'

You'd think that back in April when, as Ken Shepherd noted, Chris Matthews talked about Blockbuster being about all that's left in Rust Belt towns, one of his assistants would have gently taken him aside and explained that Blockbuster shuttered its stores some time ago. But on this evening's Hardball, there was Chris committing the exact same gaffe.

And in the very next segment, Matthews introduced MSNBC reporter Hallie Jackson, who is youthful and female, as . . "Haley Barbour," who for all his great qualities is neither. But, hey, look at the bright side. The guest in the next segment was Republican lawyer Ben Ginsberg. At least Matthews didn't introduce him as . . . Ruth Bader Ginsburg!

Reminds me of one of many great old blonde jokes...

What does a blonde say when you blow in her ear?

"Thanks for the refill."

There’s a guy in El Paso that drives a Hudson. He pulled up beside me at a store one day, and I spoke to him for a bit- also got quite a few pictures.
