It was all about If Obama wins tomorrow and then he covered all the important things delivered by Obama as well as the hate he faced from the racists.

He summarized what's at stake in the election tomorrow and painted a picture of the competing visions. I think Tweety has been rock solid for some time now in helping folks understand what's at stake and that our progressive vision is best for the country. I love Hardball even when I don't agree with all his comments.

listening, then realized that his words were quite heartfelt, quite evocative of another, earlier era

I put down the knife, and listened to the rest. almost brought a tear, but not too many of those left these

THAT said WTF was he thinking back in 03 04, when he helped keep that monster in office

sorry, but I can never forgive him for lines like 'sunny humanity,' in reference to Bush

never

disgusting racism being fostered by the Romney campaign and it's supporters. He has brought it up in his shows for at least the last month if not longer. He is passionate, genuine and outraged about it as are we.

to Chris!

with a sense of our history.I have seen tears in his eyes more than
once ..sure sometimes he doesn't press a guest enough but I think
those times he is processing what they are saying..many times in
disbelief..he always comes back to it on another show..he has the passion
for politics,Democracy and our party that I experienced with my father
and his contemporaries...he cares and his voice speaks to my heart
on so many issues.
