I personally don't see what NBC sees in Dan Abrams - this is a dumb time to move just when MSNBC is gathering steam. With the Dems probably taking one or both houses 07 will be hot politically as Dems investigate and spar with this lame-duck president. Iraq and possibly Iran and N. Korea will play in to the debate. Late summer/early fall the '08 race for the president will be hot, hot, hot for both Dems and Repukes. Stupid time to do a rebranding.
