So Scarborough's argument is that McCain told someone on tv that he was glad he voted against the tax cuts, and therefore he clearly doesn't tow the party line (is a "maverick"). The whole 'saying he intends to make them permanent' thing which Rachel cites is somehow not relevant?

What a douche.

Yup. Pwned.

Period.

Damn. That was hardcore.

Had to change embed to a TYT clip, because I couldn't find the raw clip anywhere anymore.

What a blast from the past though. A year ago she was a sometimes-panelist on David Gregory's Race for the White House, and Tim Russert was both alive and hosting Meet the Press.

Race for the White House became 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. after the election, Gregory got to replace Russert on Meet the Press. David Shuster became the host of 1600, and Rachel Maddow now has her own show which for a while was beating the pants off everyone in the ratings.

And today, 1600 is dead and gone, and Ed Shultz starts his new show in that timeslot (another progressive talk-radio personality).
