MSNBC crew seems unhappy

No chemistry between maddow and briwi. I think hes a misogynist.

Also seriously debates? Anyone who thinks debates matter wasn't around in 16. Hillary wiped the floor with him. Americans aren't that discerning.

Barring something out of the blue, the only question now is if Biden will get to 50+1 before the convention. I just don't see the debates having much impact compared to the momentum generated post-SC through now.

Brian moves the news along. The others provide context and commentary. And Steve does the numbers. And I'm usually irritated by Steve but he is the supreme master of the leaderboard.

Well said!

Steve's never bothered me in the least. In fact, I admire his grasp of the mathmatical aspect of things and I learn a lot from him.

Any of the current candidates would be able to wipe the floor with his sorry ass.

Both are smooth and calm. Kornacki gives us numbers with a bit of a bounce. Enjoy watching all three.

can't stand "briwi" [love it!], plus I think that she may have been rooting for Warren to do better, especially in their mutual home state of MA.

I agree, Brian is a misogynist and Rachael acts different when she’s with him. I don’t care for Bri.

role at MSNBC. Has cut out the Late Night talk show bits. He took the huge knock-down from anchor and did what he had to do to stay on the air, and to me he has seemed to be smooth and humble. As for him and Rachel, I've never seen him be ungentlemanly to anybody. In the past whatever smidgen of friction I've seen is between Rachel and Nicole, but it seems Rachel has surfaced lately as the winner there. Nicole is about the only (ex-?) Repuke in any incarnation I've ever liked, so this is saying something.
