Msnbc held the debate and has the footage but hasn’t shown any clips for some reason. They relied on Russert and Mitchell to tell us about Hillary’s double-talk about the NY driver’s license issue.

[Bahbah]

The Morning Joe crew agrees, Americans are really racist and sexist.

These people are disgusting.

[McGruff]

Well I watched the first hour of the debate last night and participated in the live thread. It was pretty interesting.

"That woman" kept attacking George Bush while they were snipping at her heels. I thought she's gonna a tough opponent for us. Pretty quick on her feet and didn't get rattled by all the shots she was taking. She did flip-flop like a John Fn Kerry though but she was smooth about it.

This morning's analysis is interesting. Mourning Joe crew is praising her. But CNBC's reporter wasn't so flattering. They were joking about Dennis Kissinich's UFO beliefs and Bill Richardson's Roswell Truther stand.

The she stood up to all those men attacking her sounds like a "you better not attack a female" talking point for the republican nominee.

YaYa, the Breck Girl did act odd last night. A lot of blinking eyes and deer in the headlights stare. He's so gai.

Happy Halloween although I thought it was last night on TV. :)

[McGruff]

One more thing. I have to give Russert and Brian Williams credit. The didn’t throw softballs at them. One time Russert got her to take a stand on something the quote her husband as having the opposite point of view during his administration. She danced around that one but it was quite obvious she was.

Osama and Edwards hit her on the energizing the republican voters issue. That’s one she’s vulnerable on but the Dem Party machine is in high gear now and I don’t see anyone derailing it.

Surprising and most welcomed but not to Mz. Hillary who, according to Drudge, is complaining about Russert's tactics. If the heat is too much for her from NBC's liberal moderators, I can't wait until she faces the GOP nominee.

Another not so complementary review. Ouch!

Obama, Edwards attack; Clinton bombs debate  ^

Posted by vietvet67 On News/Activism ^ 10/31/2007 8:31:59 AM EDT · 16 replies Politico ^ | Oct 31, 2007 | Roger Simon PHILADELPHIA - - We now know something that we did not know before: When Hillary Clinton has a bad night, she really has a bad night. In a debate against six Democratic opponents at Drexel University here Tuesday, Clinton gave the worst performance of her entire campaign. It was not just that her answer about whether illegal immigrants should be issued drivers’ licenses was at best incomprehensible and at worst misleading. It was that for two hours she dodged and weaved, parsed and stonewalled. And when it was over, both the Barack Obama and John Edwards campaigns signaled that in...

Wish I could have stayed up till the end. Wouldn't want to be Bill this morning.

Thanks for the Drudge tip.

Good morning. Hope you all have Goggle stock :)

How exciting and unusual. Pat Buchanan will be a guest this morning.

[YaYa123]

A day without Pat Buchanan = MSNBC would go black

[Bahbah]

Pat Buchanan is such a tool. Michigan, he says, is made for Obama because it has such a large black population.

Give it up, guys. The nomination is Hillary’s.

(Whoever advised her to go for the merry laugh to try and convince people that she had a personality is probably trying to swim with cement overshoes.)

We are now being told that a Hillary presidency doesn’t really scare conservatives.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Has Joe lost patience with Mika? He seems to be making snide remarks to her whenever I check into the show.

[Bahbah]

Has Joe lost patience with Mika?

Having just heard him make fun of her for complaining about people "yammering" on Cable tv, which is what she does for a living, I would have to vote yes.

[Bahbah]

Chris Matthews saying not nice things about Hillary. Says she can’t keep playing the little girl who has no control over her records if she wants to be president.

Then he takes Mika on for the yammering comment. (If anyone fits the term “yammering”, it’s Matthews.)

You caught that too. While discussing this story,

Postings to Iraq Upset Diplomats ^
	Posted by johnny7 On News/Activism ^ 10/31/2007 4:36:36 PM EDT · 58 replies AP ^ | 10-31-2007 | By MATTHEW LEE WASHINGTON (AP) — Several hundred U.S. diplomats vented anger and frustration Wednesday about the State Department's decision to force foreign service officers to take jobs in Iraq, with some likening it to a "potential death sentence."

Mika thought thye were right and Joe commented that they could resign in protest and work at Walmart or someplace which prompted Mika to have to say that she didn't support what they were doing. Deja Vu from the Democratic Debate.

Speaking of the debate it continues to be a topic of discussion.

Campaign call reveals Clinton debate concern ^

Hillary Rodham Clinton’s (D-N.Y.) top advisers, doing damage control after the candidate’s debate performance Tuesday, told supporters on a conference call Wednesday that the campaign needed more money to fight back. Mark Penn, Clinton’s senior strategist and pollster, and Jonathan Mantz, the campaign’s finance director, told the supporters on the call, which The Hill listened to in its entirety, that they expect attacks from Clinton’s rivals to continue, and she will need the financial resources to deflect their attacks. Clinton came under withering assault in the Philadelphia debate, and some supporters on the call agreed with analysts that she...

Spitzer's controversial plan to let illegal immigrants get driver's licenses - as leading rivals in both parties battered her for failing to give a straight answer. Republicans mocked Clinton for waffling after she provided a series of vague and confusing answers when asked about Spitzer's plan Tuesday at a Democratic debate in Philadelphia.

Maybe Joe is very short with Mika because he reads the comments he gets about her in his e-mail...Plus, she’s annoying with juvenile comments like, “you’re an idiot, come on, oh you guys.”

I actually know a woman who loves Hillary and intends to vote for her. I try to avoid that woman...

Good Friday morning, all.

Calendars marked for the return of the Iman on Dec. 3?

Will he change his “brand” I wonder.

[YaYa123]

Imus is back!!!! Yahooooooooooo

The “tell” will be if he still calls Hillary “Satan”.

[LadyBuzz]

I noticed that Charles is due back with Imus but no mention of Bernard so far....

[Bahbah]

LOL. Joe says that AIPAC will, now that Obama has written a piece about how he will engage with Iran, start writing checks for HILLARY CLINTON!

Really! They will suddenly think Hillary is a friend of Israel?

[Bahbah]

Okay, lots of hilarity this morning. Mika thinks that we should discuss all of our interrogation techniques in public. How blond of her.
