Ha! Say what you will of Nicole Wallace, but she just talked over Matthews . . . .

. . . . and he was visibly unhappy.

That's how your guests feel, you slobbery-mouthed jerk.





I know. Unimportant. But still fun to watch.

1. good... Unfortunately, though she does that with her guests too

I think she just gets animated and doesn't mean to, but she does. With Matthews, (when he does it), it is intentional.

4. Tweety does it to get an advantage.

He asks a long winded leading question and when the guest starts to answer he talks over them adding something to change their train of thought and then interrupts them as they try to finish. See how intelligent he is ? He can answer all his own questions. Why even have guests? Oh, there's always a quote or antidote from some long dead politician. Nicolle is getting more comfortable as a host and is starting to mime the Tweety pattern. Chris Hayes is getting there also. Wait. They're all doing it except for Rachel, so far anyway. Sorry for my daily rant. These hosts are really missing some great shows.

5. Tweety has always wanted to be what Keith and Phil before him, really were.

Only he's never had the moxy. He wanted the Money more. Oh, he will disagree when public opinion hits 51 percent (cause that's when it's safe) for sure. He would make an outstanding old-school Republican politician.

He's a regular weather vane. I just watched Colbert's opening and had to turn it off when I saw Tweety is the first guest.

10. He is an OUTSTANDING weather vane, you'll get zero argument from me.

But what he's always wanted, was to be one of the windmakers. I suppose being a blowhard is the next best thing.

I like Chris Matthews as a human being, but damn. His show is just The Chris Matthews Talking Hour.
