was that--certainly due to the blowback over Matt Lauer's shockingly uneven treatment last night--the press there was actually trying to ask real, non-antagonistic, questions for a change. At least for one day. They'll probably go back to asking email questions by tomorrow.

Brilliant tactic for counterbalancing the bias from last night and at the same time defusing a RW talking point ("she's afraid of the press!1!111&quot . And brilliantly executed by Sec Clinton. She looked poised, at ease, knowledgeable and strong and took Trump to task for all of his BS last night while managing to gently slap the media for their double standard at the same time. A+

But Andrea Mitchell kept photo-bombing Hillary toward the last walking in front of msnbc's camera's.

"Get out of the shot!"

I just watched (eyes on - listened to it the first time) the tail end of the press conference. Classic.

And I wonder if that could have been the msnbc crew with Andrea. Since she seemed to spending a lot of time between Hillary and the camera.
