That leaves only his third leg left to thrill.

Does Matthews read Sullivan?; 1/21/11, 12:05 PM

If you tried to caricature Matthews, exactly how would you do it?; 1/21/11, 12:13 PM

Now, was that about Obama, and was Marshall making a slam?; 1/21/11, 12:17 PM
Scott M said...: I saw Matthews live state that he never said anything about tingles going up his leg about Obama, despite having also seen the video of him doing so after Obama's speech.

It was election night and I think he was interviewing, combatively, with Michelle Bachman. She said something like, "that legs not tingling so much now, is it, Chris" and he flushed saying he had never said it and that it was made up by "them" (if memory serves).

Thus, any sort of Tingles comments brook no traffic with one Chris "Tingles" Matthews.; 1/21/11, 12:18 PM

Scott M said...: Sputtering into a semi-mumble is a very apt description. I'm guessing he takes that shit behind the scenes and at parties, etc.; 1/21/11, 12:25 PM

The NBC Universal-Comcast deal was approved, now we'll see if Comcast reprograms/reformats MSNBC into a profitable unit or sells it off.; 1/21/11, 12:35 PM
Quaestor said...: Second banana on a third rate network, meh.

The man's cerebral cortex is so worm-eaten he has to rely on hormones. A glimpse of Obama's purple lipped smile and a flush of oxytocin rushes to the sad remains of his Broca's area, producing such verbal salivation has heard in the clip.; 1/21/11, 12:40 PM

What a slut.

Maybe he's like Ritmo and it just trickles down.; 1/21/11, 12:44 PM

What Matthews said was that he felt a "thrill" running up his leg when he heard Obama speak. He never said "tingle." For some reason, he puts great stock in the distinction.; 1/21/11, 1:07 PM
Scott M said...: Well, I would admit "Thrills" doesn't have quite the ring "Tingles" does as a moniker.; 1/21/11, 1:10 PM
