MSNBC Needs to Take a Chill Pill

[askyeshua]

My initial thoughts after watching the debate wasn't that Obama had lost the debate. I would say he had an average performance. But listening to MSNBC(especially Chris Matthews and Ed Schulz), you would think he has lost the whole election tonight. They were royally pissed at Obama. Granted, didn't like the constantly taking down notes while Romney was speaking right at him, and letting Romney get away with bald faced lies. But I think MSNBC is blowing this waaaaay out of proportion. To reference, David Plouffe, they need to quit their bed-wetting. Obama will bounce back from this big!

1. there reaction isn't much different from that of DU...

They support the president as we do, and he was off his game, and there is an over-reaction at time when that happens.

3. They did the same thing four years ago

My god, I was going to slit my wrists if I heard Rachel say one more time, "Talk me down!"

Grow a pair, MSNBC pundits. Seriously.

5. Yep, I think, according to the media, Obama lost Almost all the debates to Clinton

Remember, they kept telling him to be more aggressive against Hillary.

4. Yeah, I thought it was pretty boring.

The pundotocracy's lust for blood on the floor is a bit unseemly.

8. They are freaking out.

It's ridiculous and over the top. Most people were probably bored by the debate in the first half hour.

10. These same pundits have no right to be Pissed

As they've criticized Obama from the left before.

Tweety is just all over the place.

They do what gets them ratings.

11. Without coming here or watching the post debate I felt Obama held his own and had a pretty good

Feeling about his unshakable character. Romney was too forceful and too blaintantly full of shit and I thought Obama did a good job of pointing that out. Over and over again. Why Tweety and this board is so upset about that actually baffles me.
