The mega-donors still need to answer the question: Why does having lots of money qualify you to have a bigger voice in the debate than an ordinary middle-class person?
'Morning Joey' says he doesn't understand the Obama Campaigns strategy. Well you said the same thing in 2008 and Obama won and his campaign team was praised as one of the best in history. Because you don't understand something isn't a big issue of concern, Joe. LOL
For Mika, Don't know if my out-of-the purple letter to Park Ave. Terrace ever made it to you. I have watched the show and it is the loosest show I have seen. Everyone talking a once,etc.- I notice how you have to persist! I really enjoy those looks you give. Joe seems like the kind of guy I might sit next to at a UVA football game. Full of himself,etc. but an ok guy. IN the midst of a a semi-serious conversation he had to get up to show that he,too, was not wearing socks! JIm Barns
I'm disappointed in Joe. Seems to me he's more for Romney. If that's the case, I wish he'd go work for FAUX News. Lately, he doesn't have anything positive to say about President Obama. It's always criticism. Makes me wonder why I even watch the show.
Great interview on Morning Joe this morning with Newt Gingrich. Newt is still on all upcoming primarys and can win at a brokered convention. Newt told the Morning Joe audience NEWTS plan for America, Romney doesn't have a CLUE!
You are NOT stuck with Romney. the establishment would like to make you think he has already won but in fact; Mitt has 591 delegates... NOT what the MSM says he has.
Vote for Newt or any other candidate on the ballots...write in Mickey Mouse if you have to but let the GOP know 'we the people' will not settle for the lessor of two evils!
VOTE FOR THE TRUE CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVE...VOTE NEWT!
To get The Real Delegate Count go here to see it:
Voters do your own research. Failure is only guaranteed when you quit. If you do not want Romney as the Republican nominee, inform yourself and others of the Real Delegate Count.
What a disappointing show. It's really turned into a conservative driven frat house, rather than the independent program it was before the election season came on. Most of show is negative towards the President, and totally without any substantive reasoning. Mike Barnicle asks Governor Deval Patrick what was the unemployment rate in Mass. when Romney left, and when he hears 4.3 percent, he chuckles and says that's it. No that's not it, Mike, and had you been listening to the Governor, Romney expanded the government in Mass in the form of government jobs. Unemployment was low because he made more government jobs, but not private sector jobs as he claimed he would. One of the reason the unemployment rate is at 8.1 percent now is because government jobs have been lost and the gridlock in Congress has kept it from recovering. These are jobs like teachers, firefighters, police officers, transit workers, all who have been laid off, and hiring freezes are still in place.
It's a shame to see that the show has become the launchpad for Joe's boasting, with Willie acquiescing, Barnicle snickering, and Mika being the lone voice of reason, who is consistently chided for trying to return facts to the conversation. Very, very disappointing.
Interesting that you use the phrase "frat house." Joe, a grown man, doesn't seem to realize he's not in the frat house any more. It's grow-up time. Joe seems to be stuck in a kind of adolescence or is he just plain lazy - doesn't read or study. Or, is he of the Faux kind, just throwing stuff against the wall, hoping some of it will stick.

The Link from my previous post did not come through.... here it is:
I watch little Joey trying to find an explanation for the Movement of the Crazies and am constantly amazed at much of what is the irrational and purposefully misleading. Thanks to the more rational truth-tellers who appear on this show. However, being more rational (and more respectful) they are seldom unleashed.
The newest villian on block, the villian we get to blame for "competition," China is a paper tiger. The real villians are the corporations to take advantage of China's lack of responsibility to its people and to the world's environment. Solyndra's failing doesn't necessarily mean "China" won out. It simply means that corporations take their money to China rather than invest in the US. Where would China be without corporations originally nurtured in the US? So is China the villian...competitor or is it our own corporations competing against the country that gave birth to them?
It isn't only the deeper-than-deep wreckage that the Bush years created BEFORE Obama. It has been the hateful, spiteful descendents of the cabal that set out to get rid of Obama at any cost to their party or the country AFTER Obama came in. Obama became the symbol of a threat to the illicit wealth gathering that caused the meltdown.
It's doubtful that any president has come into office in a deeper crisis or with more monied powerful interests set to destroy him.
