Did any of you catch Morning Joe just now? Chris Matthews and Joe Scarborough got into a real battle over healthcare. It got so nasty that Joe looked like he was going to explode and almost kicked Chris off the show.
Joe was his usual smug, arrogant self, and Mika was all googly-eyed sitting next to him. She tries to sound like such a concerned journalist when she talks about the cost. In the middle of her sanctimony Chris said the following:
"Mika, I think you've been caught up in this pussyfooting here."
Don't have a transcript or any specifics yet, but I think Chris feels Ed Schultz nipping at his heels. He's been a bulldog on public option healthcare. Thank God!!
The great thing is that he's framing this just right: in terms of deciding what our values are and fighting for them.
