The Whole Delivery

Village stupid elitist at it's very worse, courtesy of the Bi-polar one and Alan Greenspan's wife: Visit msnbc.com for breaking news , world news , and news about the economy You get that ladies and gentlemen. "Union leaders were so dumb," and "Blanche Lincoln was running against the establishment." Let me repeat that last sentence for you, because I know it is hard for you to digest and not spit something out on your computer screen when you heard and read it. "Blanche Lincoln was running against the establishment." Only in the Village can the Villagers can say something so extraordinary like that. Only in the Village. What makes this so appalling is that Mitchell and Matthews give the viewer their personal pathetic feelings of love for their Beltway friend Blanche, and how the White House should have protected her at all costs so their friend won't have to leave the "House of Lords", I mean, the Senate. And they don't ...

Digby may have went far on this next line, but it still resonates with me: Andrea Mitchell should res...

As mentioned early in the culmination of today's Daily Agenda post , former Senator of Nebraska Chuck Hagel delivered the defense you would expect from Democrats (and all rational, non-insane nutjobs) for President Obama on the torture issue against that nightmare of a former Vice President. Andrea Mitchell tried her best to go back to her shrill reporting ways, but Hagel would have nothing of it. And because of this, sadly, I fear that he won't be on television for a long time. All because he won't play along in the media's narrative of a "SHOWDOWN:DUEL TO THE DEATH" angel that they have ginned up all week (and will forever gin up, no matter what).

Apparently NBCs Andrea Mitchell has made this report on MSNBC now . New York State Democratic Party sources tell NBC News that Caroline Kennedy has expressed interest in the New York Senate seat being vacated by Hillary Clinton. She is known to have discussed the upcoming vacancy with New York Gov. David Paterson, who will be appointing the next senator to serve the remaining two years in Clinton’s term once she becomes Secretary of State. (Thanks to "St.Louis Woman" at the Kos.)
