Other than Mary Matalin and Terry Holt (there may be a few more RW cheerleaders but alas, I only recognize those two) - doesn't this line up of analysts seem to be a bit on the BLUE side?

There is such a breath of fresh air blowing, I'm feeling a bit jubilant! ;)

1. somewhat, but I feel MSNBC is changing thier image
With Olbermann exploding this year they know there is a vast audience that has not been getting addressed. That not everyone is conservative and moderates and lefties have no one to watch.
With Keith and our response I think they finally caught on.

3. You are very misled in identifying only two - I'm rushing out
or I would list them. DO NOT TRUST GE/MICROSOFT. That's my motto and it's served me well ever since I discovered that the old NBC is long gone and we have a very serious enemy in our living room in the form of the NBCs. If they are owned by a war making corporation, what can they bring you but Pentagon propaganda - worse than in the USSR because they pretend to be fair. They are extremely dishonest. The Pentagon is right wing. There is no mistake in that claim. A few individuals might be an exception. The Pentagon the Barons the corporations run this country and are attempting to own the world.

Keith Olberman and those who are allowing him to comment are still a mystery. It is an aberration of a welcome kind.
