2. I LOVE this clip
The lady (Fluffenbutter or whatever) makes really stupid claims and instead of an O'Rielly shout-fest RM comes back and just points out some clear and concise facts.

5. Yes, that's what I saw, too
Because Rachel kept it civil, the segment was more informative and insightful than even an interview with Ms. Pfotenhauer with a more conventional "neutral observer" kind of journalist, let alone a Bill O'Reilly or Sean Hannity.

Let's face it: the job of a high level campaign staffer is to present the candidate's case, even when it doesn't jive with the facts at hand. No matter who the client, a campaign staffer is an occupational liar. An adversarial approach is probably the best way to draw facts out of such a person.

4. In the previous times I've seen Nancy Pfotenhauer
she has gotten away with talking over everybody. Not this time. Rachel is superb! I'm so proud of her.

6. Rachel Knows Her Stuff !
I really would compare her to Tim Russert as far as preparation goes.

8. Wow, Nancy sure is one long-winded gal.
She knew not to stop talking lest she be beaten down by the sure-fire intellect of Rachel.

9. Palin is a "great athlete"?
Has anybody told the McSame campaign that this ain't the Olympics?

11. Maddow: "Nancy Pfotenhauer..."
"I am so grateful that you took time to meet with us tonight. Thank you for doing so...

...so that I could school you."
