3. It's over before I turn on my TV.
I wouldn't watch that show on a bet, Geist or no Geist.

6. Mika and Joe are very tough to take. Unfortunately, most alternatives
are even worse. I guess they are msnbc's attempt to provide balance for KO, but their just-beneath-the-surface adversarial tone (mika) and blatant hubris (both of 'em) while looking as though they think they're the coolest... blecch. What I don't like about mika's bias is that it almost seems -sneaky-... and what I don't like about Joe's is that it's in-your-face and he thinks he's always right. Period. Barnacle is refreshing, usually, and the bumper music brings back memories. Great answer!

Mika and Joe's snobby, slick, skepticism is just overdone in my view.

And why is Mika so terrified of her father? That's a little odd that they make that so obvious.

Okay, there you have my .04 cents (4="4" what it's worth)

10. The best? Huum -- he is not Imus but they could be twins

There were moments on Imus that allowed for more stimulating guests.

8. Easy answer.
There isn't Steve, Gretchen, and Brian spinning every news story to paint Obama as a socialist who goes for beer & pizza night with Bill Ayers and other "domestic terrorists".

Say what you will about Morning Joe, but 5 minutes with those 3 clowns on Fox, you would throw a brick at the screen.

9. Let's admit it - deep down, we like Mika and Joe
Otherwise, why would people care so much when they say something stupid?

They're conservatives, but they're not ideologues.

And they're entertaining morning talk show hosts, precisely because they are opinionated but not in any real vicious way.

14. Joe Scarborough is not an ideologue?
That's patent nonsense.

15. Definitely the bumper music. Willie is okay, too. I think he's Democrat
because a couple weeks ago I remember he "slipped up" and practically gave it away that he's an Obama man. I could be wrong about that.

Hey, I never knew until your post the term "bumper music". Thanks for that. Whoever selects their tunes has good taste. I highly doubt it's Joe that selects it, he looks like such a dweeb.
