OP

(62,683 posts)1. I missed Rachel (watching our weather forecast) but King should have
come back at him like Thomas did today with the head of the SC Republicans -- ticking off how Newt went after Clinton for his personal life while he was at that time engaging in an extra marital affair himself, hypocrisy.
It was excellent!
The Republican had no comment to that and jumped to the standby "Obama has destroyed our country" crutch.
King looked, to me, like a little boy who was being scolded. It was disconcerting to observe.
What did Rachel say?
