6. Yes we can pull shit out of our ass
It's all just a big game anyway, just like your Mercer for President game.

2. Her comments about Obama, who does have a great personality
in addition to his many other outstanding qualities, would be like someone saying the only reason Rachel Maddow is on teevee because she's got such a great personality.

Her cheerfulness IS a huge asset to the message she delivers for the left, but she's not just a cheerful face.

She's intelligent, insightful, quick-witted, well-spoken and usually right on the money.

I thought she was overly-simplistic in her remarks last night.

3. I've decided that all of them on MSNBC read prepared remarks.
In fact, I think that they do it like musical chairs, from the way it sounded last night. Most of them had completely switched their positions on the candidates from previous shows.

4. I was happy when she managed to get a word in. What does that say?
