Andrea Mitchell is decrying Obama's VERY TOUGH DEPORTATION EFFORTS

and surmising that will hurt Hispanic support for Obama? Huh? The Repulicans don't think he deports enough. It seems she will say anything to criticize Obama. She greased over Ann Romney scolding Republicans for talking smack about Mittens.

Trying to stay relevant. And trying to 'gin up' business for MSNBC. If they don't keep the agita going - they don't get the advertising dollars.

Or - maybe she's just 'jealous' of the night crews ratings - and is trying to get hers up to par with theirs? Not that she's going to be successful with that . . .
