(63,901 posts)making funny looks of horror at Sherrod as he was explaining the progressive view and talking about ways to improve Medicare's delivery of service. She seemed not to "get it." I almost expected her to blurt out "What do you mean we don't have to cut benefits?" but she didn't quite get that awful. Bad enough that she was stuck on raising the eligibility age. Sherrod pointed out the hypocrisy of people in their position telling workers they have to suck it up and wait until age 67 for their Medicare benefits to kick in.
Joe of course is such a snivelling coward he couldn't go up against Sherrod. I caught a glance at his wonderful wife, Connie Schultz, in the green room shot of them before he came on set. At least, Mika mentioned her as Sherrod was leaving.
