I can't take the talking heads' Clinton speculation
The speculation on Hardball makes me want to vomit. None of them know anything and they all chatter like they know something. I need to break my cable habit again. I fell off the wagon for the election and it's starting to be annoying once more.

1. It is rather disgusting... They have a drive to make the public hate the Clintons.
That's it.. AND all this supposed "drama" has been created by them, the talking heads.

2. I noticed that too. It blows my mind.
Its done, she's SOS. But that guy keeps screaming and whining about Hillary's drama, but he's the only person squealing...She seems ready to get to work.

9. How is it done?
they keep repeating the same bullshit, but no one has officially come out and stated anything different than what has been said ad nauseam for weeks..or at least it seems like weeks. I hope when they do announce they do it in the middle of the night.

10. because the big-ass leaks are from P.E. Obama's transition team. Get. Over. It.
He wants her to serve and she's agreed. It's just paperwork and details now.

12. I wish I could get over it...
I've seen the same story repeated since yesterday citing 2 aides 'close to the Obama transition team'. Pardon me for not buying the bullshit.

Like they're trying to whip up us all up.

They need to concentrate on W's current role in Where's Waldo.

7. See, there's this thing on the remote called an OFF button.
Try it. It'll resolve that little problem.

If that's a bit too drastic, try the Channel Up or Channel Down button. Those will generally improve the situation, as well. Keep pushing it until the talking heads go away. ;)

8. What else are they going to talk about?
The Clintons always bring viewers, pro and con
and are easy marks to deflect criticism of
almost anything else that's going on...even of
the lame turkey GWB, whose record they SHOULD
be talking about.

If the Clintons received royalties for every
word said or written about them, they'd own the
world.

11. Yes, you do.
For the most part, I am much happier not watching that shit. I do still watch Tweety occasionally, but as you said, they act like they know something, when they don't.

13. Why do you watch that creep Tweety?
It's simple to avoid the aggravation, I simply won't watch MSNBC. It's a sorry excuse of a news network and deserves its poor ratings.

14. You would think differently at times
This looks wrong as it is and if this does happen, I'd have some very serious questions to Obama.
