Does Donny Deutsch know what he's talking about? [View all]

Now that he has a higher profile on MSNBC and his own talk show, he seems to be pitching himself as an authority on democratic strategy and public opinion. I checked out his show last weekend and I can't remember exactly what he said, but I remember that it annoyed me.

Any thoughts on his commentary and if he should be taken seriously?
