11. Nope.
I got it all from DU. :rofl: Rolled my lazy butt out of bed around 7:30. He also had a major brain fart that's on the front page right now. It's pretty funny.

28. They do seem to make it harder for us to see it out here.
Or they could at least run it on MSNBC at 9. By the time 3pm rolls around, and it's on msnbc, I've seen all I want to see of mtp.

29. no kidding, it's on early or at some random time later on when i'm not home.
If they made Bill Moyers the host though you can bet my ass would be out of bed at 6:00am sunday mornings.

never gonna happen.

10. First question he invoked the gipper.
Brokaw asked what movie we are watching, Field Of Dreams or The Perfect Storm? McC said Knute Rockne and the gipper, but he looked more like he was on the Titanic.

15. They call him McSame for a lot of reasons. BTW, you can see the show and read a transcript
at the website, if you wish.

16. He brought pretty epic fail.
Brokaw actually brought his A-game (or at least his B-game) to the questions instead of allowing McCain a free pass. Quite amusing.

23. To put it simply: McCain got owned.
But you can watch some of the MTP clips here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8004316

25. He eviserated himself - it was embarassing

I don't agree with Brokaw's critics today - he asked him tough questions and had the video clips to back up his point and then handed it off to McCain.

McCain convinced not a single independent today and probably lost some votes.


It actually sounded like he was trying to convince himself.
