While R Candidates speak to empty chairs, Colbert draws huge crowd. Rachel reports on SC.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908/ns/msnbc_tv-rachel_maddow_show/#46079073


Rachel covers Herman Cain's continuing art project and the lack of enthusiasm for the "real" Republican candidates.


With guest Joel Sawyer, former Executive of the Republican Party of South Carolina, who says regarding the Republican debates, "I don't see the upside".

Funny, I do.



Runs 6:32.

on edit: here's the link on Ed's coverage of Colbert's antics. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/46078361#46078556

Did I just see a sane republicon?
Talk about a dying breed that is one in its last throes. But seriesly!!!!!1!!!? was that a sane republicon there with her?

I have to add. Rachel is the best spokesperson we've got speaking for us. Such a beautiful person and with her it starts at the heart and works its way out from there... Just wonderful

She was great when uncovering secrets of "the Family."

Not so great when covering the horse-race (like everyone else), and describing disgusting cocktails.

I don't want egg-whites in my cocktail. And I don't think it is hilarious that you dropped a yolk in your cup.

Even though you thought it was.

Rachel, I don't begrudge you making hundreds of thousands of dollars a month, I wish I did, but you have sold your soul.

Bring back the meaningful content. Please.

Your links provided the best reception on my iPad... Many thanks..

I'm still trying to see if I can do without MSNBC. on TV.... Just got to Florida from the north, whereas we used to get MSNBC as part of a package, now I need a new cable 'box-connection'..... to get MSNBC... and maybe other news channels.

Makes getting MSNBC. more expensive... I'm still too annoyed with Comcast to get a price for TV reception with only MSNBC and CNN.... So thanks again....
