MSNBC Morning Joe coverage SUCKS
Wow, MSNBC's early coverage is pitiful compared to the other channels. Morning Joe once again revolves around Joe and his partisan BS.

Better crowd shots, shows the mood of the place, provides more detail, etc.

16. Anything good about Dems
they always try to paint with a Republican brush or link to Republicans. He's so Reagan-like, Republican responsibility, etc., BS -- they can never give Dems any credit.

23. Just wait. Any economic recovery will be "because of Republican votes". Any peace will be "Bush's
plan".

We're a "Center-Right nation", remember??

6. Really....
and ole Joe repeatedly admitting that the Rs were wrong.

Yikes, who knew Schumer had such an outsized head for his body. That was scary.

5. It wasn't as bad earlier
When Dean was on, etc. Now they have Nooners and the other networks leftovers. Was better earlier, but there is prob better coverage now on other stations. Joe wasn't as bad as I thought he would be though, but I have low expectations for him.

19. you mean you think there will be a change in the hosts (which I doubt) or in Joe's
attitude (he is a died-in-the-wool R - so I doubt this also)

no - I doubt if there will be any changes in the show - they still have the best guests so I will continue to watch - even though it is not PC for DU.

With such a great evening line-up, why do they have that idiot on the air, first thing in the morning? I'm now watching CNN.

21. Have to wait for Keith/Rachael/Tweets..
