Watch Chuck Todd's journalistic fail come back to bite him (VIDEO) [View all]


Chuck Todd inserted himself into the news by taking sides in the Mitch McConnell Alison Lundergan Grimes Senate race.

"It just came across as you are trying to be a US Senator, you want to cast tough votes? You can’t even answer that question? It borders on disqualification. To some voters they are going to sit there and say I can’t vote for you and I don’t want to vote for him. I don’t know what to do." --- Chuck Todd

The Republicans made ads featuring Chuck Todd's comments. Today Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) shows why journalists cannot make themselves the story.
