Rachel Maddow gets her prize! after saying Matthews is "greatest analyst on TV"
Edited on Mon Jan-21-08 05:32 PM by bartholomewjohn
Chris Matthews announced that Rachel Maddow now “an MSNBC political analyst.”

Let's not get confused.
Rachel Maddow told Christ Matthews that liberals were saying that he and his Hillary hatred were responsible for Clinton's win in New Hampshire.
Maddow would not dare say to Matthews that she agrees with this view. She was waiting to be hired. You don't mess with the best if you expect to be in cable.

But in an interview with AP this is what Rachel I-hope-I-get-hired Maddow told AP in an interview:

"I thought it was a patently ridiculous statement to make after having stated so emphatically the night before that he would never underestimate Hillary Clinton again,” said Rachel Maddow, a liberal commentator and "Air America" talk show host who was on the MSNBC set that night.

However, she also said Matthews is the best political analyst on television for his knowledge, quickness and ability to be critical while anchoring a broadcast.

"Chris is relatively impervious to criticism," she said. "I think Chris does what he wants."


I can already hear you say that Rachel Maddow said bad things about Matthews. yes, but those bad things are not enough to make Matthews less than the BEST!

4. So you love everything she says?
What about her opinion that Matthews is the best political analyst on TV? better than Keith Olbermann?
