I can certainly see how Matthews might feel threatened, as Rachel brings the new hotness while Chris is still sharing anecdotes about Tip O'Neill.<BR/><BR/>But I say watch out for Olbermann. Yes, he's acting all like he discovered Rachel (even though she started appearing on Tucker Carlson's MSNBC show a couple years ago), and he's talking her up like the proud big brother...<BR/><BR/>But if she starts to steal a little of his spotlight? If she gets a little too much love in the press? I think Olbermann's the type to turn on her... green eyes blazin'.<BR/><BR/>In general, though, watching these clips, I felt bad that Rachel is walking into such a hostile work environment.Undercover Black Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08704721024820668555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-64829185978936653212008-08-27T08:29:00.000-07:002008-08-27T08:29:00.000-07:00Oh man, that Keith Olbermann vs Chris Matthews com...Oh man, that Keith Olbermann vs Chris Matthews competition is SO heating up right now!

I've thought those two are a powderkeg waiting to blow ever since Keith was elevated to election-night co-anchor.<BR/><BR/>Matthews has every reason to not respect Keith as a political analyst. So it must gall Matthews that Keith is now the Prince of MSNBC.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand, like you say, Chris Matthews is an out-of-control gasbag regardless.

Of course, Olbermann illustrated this with the universal hand sign for "blah-blah-blah," which elicited an angry retort from Matthews to Keith.<BR/><BR/>I normally DVR both Hardball and Countdown on a regular basis and generally like the two of these guys, but Matthews has seemed unhinged this week, with all kinds of odd behavior. I think he's too outsized a personality to work effectively with a partner (hell, he can't even be bothered to wait for his guest's reponses before moving on to his next question on his own show) these days.<BR/><BR/>Whatever the case, the tension is great. I think we have a pretty good chance of Chris going Zell Miller on Keith by the end of the week.Bellingham Viewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11927171975907974289noreply@blogger.com
