Chris Matthews is a pathetic little tool of the Republican smear machine. He hates Democrats, the Clintons in particular, and he will turn on Edwards or Obama if either gets the nomination. His crushes on Republican bullies is creepy. He doesn't like smart women who disagree with him or speak out. He has a pitiable and disturbing need to run with the rich bullies to convince himself and others that he is tough and cool. He shuts down or intimidates anyone who seriously contradicts him, particularly if they try to defend a Clinton. And he, not Clinton, is keeping the drug story alive. It's a twofer--keep Obama drug use out there and blame Clinton for keeping it alive. How can you let him get away this trash. By appearing on his show and being quiet or agreeing with his red-faced rants you lend him credibility and allow him to convince himself he is cool. You are better than that, and women need you to challenge him, even at the risk of not being asked back. Matthews represents all that is wrong with the MSM.
