Chris Matthews Offers To Help Hillary’s 2016 Campaign: ‘We’ll Get You In There’
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 02/25/2013 6:04:11 PM PST by chessplayer

According to TV critic David Zurawik, MSNBC's hiring of ex-Obama officials David Axelrod and Robert Gibbs makes the so-callend news network almost "a bona fide organ of state propaganda."

Hours after this was published Monday, Hardball's Chris Matthews offered his services to Hillary Clinton - along with those of MSNBC contributors Howard Fineman and Joan Walsh - in order to get her elected president in 2016 (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):

At the end of a lengthy discussion about Clinton's chances in 2016 - never mind that Election Day is 44 months away! - Walsh said, "I think if she runs again, she really can't run as that front-runner. It cannot be that inevitability campaign that she ran in 2007, and she knows that. She's got to be about the future."

Matthews replied, "If you're watching, Madam Secretary, all three of us have brilliant ideas. All of us have great ideas. And I especially put myself in that group with Joan and David. We know how to do this, we’ll get you in there."

Although there may have been a little tongue in Matthews' cheek, everyone watching knew full well that he meant it, and that his mission in the next 44 months - as well as that of likely every MSNBC contributor and guest - is to get Clinton in the White House.

Matthews, like so many others, assumes there will be an election in 2016. It’s possible the One won’t relinquish power.

THAT is EXACTLY my thought.

In 2016, Matthews will be 71 and Hillary will be 68 - bordering on irrelevance - when it comes to presidential things.

Can you imagine if Hillary runs against the Uni Bang Obama who would Matthews support.

if he takes enough Viiagra, maybe his leg thrill will return in time for Hillary in 2016? (you know, the “4 hour erections” that Viiagra advertises or tells us about all the time.....)

never discount modern science!

I can’t see Hillary giving Chrissy the tooth fairy a “tingle” but I guess you never know.

I would say this was a new low... if there was any lower they could go.

It really is astonishing.

Odd, since Chrissy was just one of the dozens of MSM illiterati that did everything they could to dump Hillary for the sake of The One in 2007 and 2008 — including the exact sort of thing they would decry as “sexism” if it came from anyone else.

"Although there may have been a little tongue in Matthews' cheek"

His tongue was in Hillary's behind cheek.
