Poor Chris Matthews. Poor, poor Chris Matthews.
The MSNBC host is bitterly clinging to the results of a new poll that show President Obama’s approval numbers roaring back to life.
Of course, Matthews attributes The One’s sinking fortunes to “all the crazy stuff of the summer.” You know, crazy stuff like “the tea parties, the birthers, the nutbags out there.”
Unfortunately, guests Charlie Cook of the Cook Political Report and John Harris of the Politico weren’t so eager to agree with Matthews assessment of the situation. It was their unenviable task to tell Matthews that the pole he cited was an outlier and inconsistent with all the other polls.
For the first time in recent memory, Matthews was almost stunned into silence. Which would have almost made his show watchable.
