Did anyone see Chris Matthews' "Big Number" for tonight? 19.

[jenmito]

He claimed Obama fell 19 points in his approval rating, comparing apples and oranges. He said Obama started out with an 82% approval rating and now has a 63% approval rating. The problem with that, of course, is Obama's 82% approval was for his TRANSITION while 63% was the lowest rating of Gallup's approval rating. (He started with a 68% approval rating according to Gallup-not 82%, and today Obama's approval rating is 66%, making the "Big Number" a whopping 2, not 19.)

5. Yes, that was good...

and he was also all OVER the Libby case and lies that got us into the war, but things like this should be corrected.

6. I found it ironic

that he kept saying Obama was not communicating the stimulus package well, but Chris couldn't even say "stimulus" without effing it up. He called it a "bailout" to Crist and then later was stammering "this budget...er...budget...they call it a stimulus.."
