(21,925 posts)I've never seen Matthews so relentlessly critical of a Reshitican.

(30,885 posts)It is out of character for Matthews. But the fact of the matter is that no one likes Mitt. The former passengers from the clown car are lining up to give "endorsements" in return for God-knows-what, but there is an ENDLESS supply of EVERY one of them saying MITT CAN'T WIN. Do they think those clips are just gonna DISAPPEAR between now and November?

(19,369 posts)I'm hoping to see the media grow a spine and start really calling out the hypocrisy and blatant lying that has been the GOP's stock and trade for the past 30 years.
This was a good start Chris. Keep it up.

(24,721 posts)and everything that he stands for. It was a little amusing to watch Chris get angrier & angrier by the episode.
I particularly liked Chris' earnest, passionate dislike for Romney when he went back & forth with Michael Steele. Chris clearly came far out on top of that exchange -- it was fun to watch.
The third segment was really, really good. It was about Richard Grenell's resignation from the Romney campaign & about what it says about Romney himself. Two presidents of republican organizations, the Log Cabin Republicans, who defended Romney's (in)action on the resignation, & the Human Rights Campaign, were the guests.
The president of the Human Rights Campaign questioned what Romney stands for, due to Romney's silence following Grenell's resignation, which in their view, was due to the American Family council (or organization) putting the pressure on him. If he can bow to them, what does that say about what he'll do for them in regard to gay marriage, putting pro-LGBT justices on the supreme court, etc.
