I don‘t blame House Minority Whip Eric Cantor for savoring the irony of his appearance on MSNBC tonight to brag about conservative comebacks when each of the network’s panelists declared the GOP dead for a generation just two short years ago. But Cantor’s less-than-subtle jab at the liberal-leaning network didn’t go unnoticed as Keith Olbermann responded with his own snide remark.
Oh, what fun election night is!

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 1:52amI watched this exchange earlier this evening. The only difference I would have liked Mr. Cantor to have had, would have been to reply “ WHO CAUSED THE CEILING IN OUR BUDGET”.
Other than that, I loved his smile and was smiling with him.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 1:22amI couldn’t resist going to MSNBC to see how they were “leaning forward.” Seriously, I watched 30 seconds of it before changing back to FOX. All they were doing was bashing the Tea Party, trying to make the case that their candidates were failures. That’s analysis? Meanwhile, FOX had both Dems and Repubs discussing the results in a professional, fair, and intelligent way.
When, oh when, will the new owners of NBC clean house?

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 1:16amUm, Olberman just interviewed Jenny Oropeza
From Drudge.
Deceased candidate, Democrat Jenny Oropeza is still holding strong, early ballot data shows that she has nearly a 7 percentage point lead over Republican candidate John Stammreich.
Despite the death of 53-year-old incumbent Oropeza, she still has a likely chance to win the race for State Senate in the 28th district. Because her death on Oct. 20 was within 10 days of the election, her name remains on the ballot.
Well we all know many or most dead democrats votes in every election. soooo, why shouldn’t one of them win an election.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 1:09amThe MSNBC election coverage team dishonors themselves with their sophomoric, disrespectful, condescending response to the newly elected guests. It is truly pathetic that as a group of journalists, they are so immature and juvenile in their response to reality. It is going to be a rough ride for them.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 12:58amYou think this is bad, wait until you hear Matthews’ interview with Michelle Bachman. She speaks of the beauty of capitalism and the free market system and he asks her if she‘s ’hypnotized‘ or ’in a trance’- just the usual at PMSNBC- rude, condescending, arrogant, narrow-minded, one-sided- you know, typically liberal and, as always, shilling for Obama. What fun to watch them have to report all of these Republican victories!

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 12:32amPity the progressive elite. Their messiah just took a hit and their faith is shaken. This election was not so much a conservative victory as it was a vote of “no confidence” for this administration. There is much work to be done and the ‘people’ will have more of a hand in the correction. We must be careful that it does not get out of hand, as we have a slew of newbies going to D.C.. This new house can do a lot of repair work. Let’s make sure they have the right tools and materials.
The left is not shy about using nefarious methods against us. We are not home, yet, but this gets us back on the road to manageable government. It is time for a prayer of thanks:
Holy Father, thank you for your children, and their will to come closer to your ideal. Today you’ve sent glorious hope for our nation, and all praise and glory is yours. In the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Amen

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 12:13amIt is time for the party of “no” to treat these jackasses as the Obama administration and the democrats treat Fox. A media blackout may be in order and when they don’t have anything to report they may just do like a dog turd and dry up and go away.
