First NBC will choose a new Bureau Chief and that person
will probably choose a new permanernt host of MTP.

In the meantime, they will probably have a series of guest-hosts..

There are several who should NOT be considered.. they will test market the guest-hosts and probably decide on someone after a few months..

1. Yeah, I think they're not going to move too fast. But they will need to decide on
a new DC bureau chief fairly quickly. After all, this is a HUGE political year. They can't have that seat going unfilled for too long.

Anybody notice it's Friday the 13th?

2. New Bureau Chief??
Andrea Mitchell??

Brokaw seems to enjoy retirement.

Who is on the bench that has Centrist credibility?

12. Dan Abrams has potential.
Just not Morning Joke or Shucker Carlson.

13. Mrs. Greenspan
is a bore. And isn't forthcoming in her connections on ANY issue she pontificates about.

We need some new YOUNG blood on TV.

18. I sure hope not.. Andrea's halting delivery & dear-in-the-headlights
demeanor is annoying to the nth degree..and of course she's Greenspan's wife..and had to be privy to the truth about our wretched economy all those years he was spinning us...and said nothing about it..

a guy like Chuck Todd would be better..no baggage, and he has the enthusiaam..

11. Bill Moyers should host Meet the Press if they want a real news show
that speaks the truth.
