He's gotten out of hand. He's been trending that direction for a while now, makes Ed Schultz look like a p****. Maddow is the only one I truly care for on MSNBC, but I don't mind Chris Matthews either.

Wow, seriously? Maddow and Matthews? In some way I can understand Maddow, but not really...but Matthews is a f***ing knob.

I can't see anyone voting for a person who supported the Vietnam War but decided to be a draft dodger.

I can't see how people vote for 90% of the these morons that somehow get into congress/senate/governor/city council positions, etc...but somehow they get there. What's more astounding is they often get re-elected without trying, despite how stupid they've shown they are while in power.

Nat'l polls published in past 24 hours: Obama +3.2, Obama +3, Obama +3, Obama +1,Obama +0.6, Obama +0.5, TIE, Romney +7

According to Nate Silver, Obama's chances of winning are over 70% again :headbang

MSNBCs weekend lineup is strong. Chris Hayes up with chris is excellent.

President Obama in VA today: “If you come down with a case of Romnesia… here’s the good news: Obamacare covers pre-existing conditions!” Vote for Obama!! I'll be voting for him on monday :-)

Unemployment rate drops in 41 states, including most swing states.

 

Obama leads by 3 points in NC

How convenient that they've all dropped right before the election. It's obvious all of those states will revise their numbers in November or December.

I actually think this is perfectly okay. I would want to know if a candidate is going to directly cause me peril at my place of work. If I work in pornography and Mitt Romney plans to ban it, I would like to know about this. Then the onus is on me to verify what my employer says, just like anything I hear anywhere else.

 

If the employers want to somehow leverage people's jobs to bundle votes, then they can get in trouble as they should. In the end, more people talking is a good thing even if they might talk out of their ass (like anyone might do).

 

It's a form of intimidation and works to suppress the speech of employees. How comfortable would you be with an Obama bumper sticker on your car if your boss told you there will be cutbacks if he wins?

Business owners don't get less of a voice just because people might listen more. You can't suppress the information.

they are legally allowed to tell employees they will be fired if Obama wins, and I don't think that should be illegal. But it is, imo, immoral to use that position of authority and control over others' livelihood for political messaging.

Eh, I think it's more of a sexy news story than anything. If I worked there i'd just be like "meh".

 

In most newspapers they are seriously hindered from showing any outward political allegiances (QUEUE HYSTERICAL LAUGHTER FROM CERTAIN POSTERS), and I'm sure most don't care.

I don't know where to dump this, but it relates to the discussion over hours worked that came up in the CTU strike thread. Turns out people overestimate how much they work on average:

nothing really political, just thought it was interesting.

I remember when NPR fired their weekend opera show person because she attended an OWS rally.
