I wanted to see how they were going to handle defeat, I had no idea it was going to be such a gigantic defeat. I was on MSNBC when the winner was called, then switched over. I agree, watching Britt Hume pucker up was priceless. To se them al fidgeting around trying to find words to describe what just happened.
I was surprised to hear them talk positively about him as president. I could not imagine Juan Wiliams not being moved by the unfolding events.
I wonder what that group of Black right wing pundits that the network was trotting out trying to be clever "oh lets get right wing blacks to talk against the black candidate".
I cannot figure these people out, and it has nothing to do with conservatism. Most of the black families I know are very conservative when it comes to how they run their family and lives.
I thought it was a case of getting face time on the air. Who is going to listen to an African American liberal?, but have them spout the neocon talking points, now that is worth putting on TV. Are these 'useful idiots' welcomed back into the African American community, or are they ostracized?
