I love Rachel Maddow, BUT....

If she says---contemporaneous--one more time tonight, I'm going to scream! I stopped counting at 20.

Kind of like this other thing she's started doing with drumming on the desk.

Back to your regular programming.

And I never miss her. But that doesn't mean she can't get on my nerves sometimes. She's obviously pretty excited about what's going on. Everybody is.

So no need to be nasty.

She's the only political TV commentator I regularly listen to any more. With good reason. I can cut her a lot of slack if she overuses a 6-syllable word a few too many times during the course of a hectic show.

I counted two, but I was listening to the information she was giving us. I must have missed a few "contemporaneously" outbursts. She is great and can drum table and "contemporaneously" us all she wants.

when others might seem to drift off topic, she has researched and put together threads of evidence that continue to unravel the Trump/Russia connection.

Her voice gets a little high and squeaky sometimes when she gets excited, but hey, she's about the sharpest tool on any network right now, and has excellent guests on every night.

Especially when she talks extemporaneously.
