Give Jack Cafferty his own freaking show!

[FLAprogressive]

Boy I'd like to see him move to MSNBC one day and get his own show preceding KO and Maddow.....Olbermann, Maddow, and Cafferty are probably the last three in the MSM with a backbone.

1. That would be so sweet!

[w8liftinglady]

2. That would be incredible!

3. I can't watch a youtube video now - what did he say? Thanks!

[FLAprogressive]

4. Here you go

"If John McCain wins, this woman will be one 72-year-old's heartbeat from being POTUS. And if that doesn't scare the hell out of you it should."

[lisa58]

5. Thanks - and....Way to go Jack!

[FLAprogressive]

6. No problem...Jack keeps telling it like it is.

[caledesi]

7. I agree! NT

[shadowknows69]

8. Go Jack

Wolf is such a tool.

9. He would be the Lewis Black of Cable News

I'm serious. that Mad Money guy has made a great niche for himself. A show with some curmudgeon attitude would probably be fresh for awhile. It would be a smart move for CNN.

It would probably get tiresome, but he could give it a nice run for a year.

10. Rachael Maddow's success my open the door for that!

[elfin]

11. He can be right on BUT

maybe just not yet, though he is sharp and caustic no matter what his opinion of the day is.

He is weathering some pretty severe personal crises (driving incident aftermath, death of wife), which may mean he is not quite ready for Prime Time. He is a good cleansing note to Wolfie and because that show gets a fairly wide viewership in Cable Land, he is in a good place -- for now.

He can be erratic, but he seems to truly respond to sentiments via EMail -- so keep on sending good one liners to him.

[FLAprogressive]

12. yeah -- he seems to be doing as well as can be expected

I felt so bad for him....

[Poseidan]

13. Excellent

He did what free journalists are supposed to do. Government is government. The free journalist is supposed to investigate government as government, reporting their findings to the people. Too many journalists today exercise false objectivism by simply giving different political factions equal opportunity to push their government agendas.

The fact our journalists are starting to do their jobs again (after 8 long years), is a very good sign.

14. Just out of curiosity, besides answer his email, what does he do all day? n/t

[FLAprogressive]

15. Provide a daily dose of truth in the corporate media. nt

[CrispyQ]

17. He used to be on the morning show & on the weekend "In the Money" show.

Now he is relegated to 2-3 five minute spots during Blitzer's show.

That doesn't answer your question exactly, but he did have a bigger on-air presence in the past. As the Iraq war went badly, Jack began to speak out against the boosh administration & CNN has slowly decreased his air time.

[malaise]

16. LOL

:rofl:

[Lugnut]

18. Hear, hear!

What a primetime lineup that would be.

[ailsagirl]

19. He could replace David Gregory!! Perfect!!

[johnfunk]

20. Is MSNBC has "Countdown with Keith", CNN should have...

... SMACKDOWN with Jack Cafferty

The No Bull$h!t Zone of ever there was one! More Jack, please!

[FLAprogressive]

21. Hahaha perfect! nt

[cliffordu]

22. Cafferty has gone on record several times to say he wants nothing to do with a

full time show....A weekly talk show skewering of the other talking heads would be fun....

[elizfeelinggreat]

23. I watched the video, loved the look he gave us at the very end!

I definitely want to vote on the poll but I can't find it on their CNN page ... did they give the poll results already?

[FLAprogressive]

24. I dunno which look was better - Jack's or Katie's....lol

25. here you go:
