So is Russert now a permanent addition to that

[Skidmore]

awful The Cycle show? Seriously there has to be better talent among the younger folks than what this show comes up with. SE Cupp was horrible and that Abby Politicianskid who took her place is only better because she has social skills. Kornacki was no asset either. But Russert? He does that nasally and shallow cool kid crap.

May have to take up watching Paranormal Witness.

1. Get rid of Bashir and promote Baby Russert, member of the lucky sperm club

Won't belong before Sharpton, Maddow and Lawrence are replaced by Mark Halperin, Joe Scab and Harold Ford.

3. Truly a BAD show.

As limited as he is, little Puke Russert may increase the gravitas of the show. Not that I will watch to see if true.

SICK that Martin messed up - I loved his show. Sometimes had to see the last bit of Cycle before he started. Do like Joy, but really miss Martin.

5. If you consider snark and

college kid social time pretensiousness to be gravitas, it may work for you. I wouldn't hold my breath though for quality.

7. That would be "comparative gravitas"

Forgot the additional verbiage to indicate my profound dislike of the show. He may look better in comparison to the rest, but such a very low bar indeed. Can't stand him.
