Halperin predicted Wendy Davis would become a national political figure on Morning Joe today.

Tina Brown, bless her, applauded the Texas women who stormed into the Capitol and said she "loved" Davis who "got out there and DID it!". Even Mika nodded at that, next to a stone faced Scarborough. He had earlier had a bit of a rough tussle with an angry Al Sharpton over the VRA in an earlier segment, even trying to act "reasonable" ("I'm not angry...&quot . So maybe he didn't want to look like a complete a-hole this morning...

Mighty fine TV watching today...

His behavior varies but he was in full bully mode with Rev Al this morning. Gidney N Cloyd Jun 2013 #4

I think they were glad to see some real spirit and feistiness on behalf of their constitutional rights. I was expecting to hear "mob rule" stuff...instead they showed admiration for the courage that was displayed.

How this ignorant clown stays on MSNBC is beyond me! He has great guests but I just can't stand watching him anymore. He is an embarrassment to civilized people.
