Chuck Todd seems nervous......
Guess he finds it hard to toe the GOP party line and still try and sound truthful.

Have you all seen that ridiculous ad where they show Chuck Todd at the very end, standing there like he's a 5 year old boy looking at us like we are his mommy? What is that about anyways?

MSNBC is just plain ass weird. Hacks in the morning and the truth later at night. :wtf:

Are they just hedging their bets? :shrug:

2. You noticed that, hey?
Like he knows he has to paint things negatively against Obama, but when he was gently pressured on his answers by KO, be noticeably started almost turning red.

4. It's not a party thing: Chuck Todd wants to be famous, and for that he needs a horserace
He wants his "whiteboard moment" on election night. For that, he needs it close. This puts him in a particular dilemma, since his credibility depends on his being accurate. Aw, what a dilemma for poor Chuck Todd. The election will be over by 10pm Eastern, denying poor Chuck his whiteboard moment, but he will have spent the better part of two months telling us how close it really is in order to produce his whiteboard moment.

By the way, who do you want to win this election? I'm curious.

3. You noticed that am/pm divide too?
Perhaps they assume that people who have a TV on near them during the day are dumber then evening TV watchers..Who knows what they think?

6. I have no vendetta against Chuck Todd, but..
...I do find it curious that all of the anchors refer to him as "the smartest pundit on television", or something similar. They do it so consistently that I find it insincere. I think they've been given orders from management to talk about Chuck Todd in glowing terms.
