formerly of The 1A on NPR. He'd be a good choice for a prime time slot.

Positively fantastic.

No Nicole. No fluff

Replacement has to have extreme gravitas.

She is on top of everything.

First one to cut a Trump speech off to say she does not want to hear any more because he is lying.

Chris Hayes is unwatchable. Not sure what happened to Ari Melber but I usually turn him off mid show.

MSNBC needs to strengthen their evening shows. I love Larry O’ Donnell but he is on too late.

And very loudly I might add, usually in a sudden outburst.

It wrecks the speaker's thought-chain and they have to wait for her to finish before they can continue. But sometimes she'll ask another panelist a question after her outburst - and then the other panelist butts in while the original speaker either waits to finish or simply gives up.

Don't get me wrong, it's not a constant thing. But it it's rude, especially when you were interested in what the original speaker was saying. I realize it's Nicolle's show, but c'mon.

So we can here her lament about the good old Cheney - Bush regime. “ We would never do that when Bush was president. “ she always says.

Seriously. We rail at Rs and wonder what it is about them that they can't see the light of day, then when they do come to their senses and join the side of everything good we complain that they used to be Rs, so they can never be trusted, no matter how much they bash the current crop of Rs.

And we're supposed to win elections applying such purity tests?

I don’t. She wants another Bush in the White House. I won’t listen anyone say the Bush admissions would never lie. She worked for a war criminal. And she has the gall to lament about how ethical they were.

Funny how memory softens things.

To see all the Presidents lovey dovey when every Democrat has to clean up the previous Republican mess. They have a huge cess pool to clean this time. Have to rebuild a good share of the institutions.
