Rachel is battling to preside over this MSNBC panel.

Chris Matthews and Lawrence O'Donnell are talking over her and disrespecting her.

Keith would probably be presiding if not for his departure.

O'Donnell and Matthews would not be trying to steamroll over him like they are doing with Rachel tonight.

Is this her first time in the captain's chair on big event analysis panel?

I wish they would defer to her more and build her up.

They're coming across as terrible chauvinist egoist bastards.

1. Ugh she gotta assert herself or she is going to be run over.

If she wants to be the heavy in the lineup she has to assert herself and not wait for some deference.

4. If she's in the "captains chair" she needs to act like the captain and a strong assertive woman

11. Matthews is an asshole

I tried watching his show yesterday - he CANNOT let someone answer a question without him interrupting, because what he has to say is so much more important than anything anybody else has to say.

13. I sensed a lot of tension, too. Rachel's "take" seemed unwelcomed. Threatening?
