Rachel Maddow's ratings are incredible

If only MSNBC would have listened to us months ago, but at least she's there now. Move over Larry King, there's a new girl in town....Her ratings even beat Countdown a few times.

It's nice to see and we hope you will continue to tune in. O'Reilly has stepped up his attacks on NBC in response to her success and that will only help them in the long run.

Now we're talking. Maybe there's hope after all :) Good job Rachel and viewers!!

To paraphrase Biden, I think people HAVE had enough of the BS spin and will tune in for a show that's actually intelligent and not just goading borderline psychotics to mayhem.

With any luck the electorate itself will also choose intelligence over...over...well, over whatever McCain and Palin are.

Well done Rachel!

It was only a matter of time before Rachel's voice of truth cut through the bullshit that has been passing for political commentary.

Nice to see the non-FemBot guests- I had forgotten what real people looked like.

I like her show and think she's smart as all get out, but I miss her taking opponents down a peg or two. Everyone on her show backs up what she says. (And I know McCain, et al, is unwilling to send anyone on her show). C'mon, Rachel, get some opposing viewpoints on there (and then take the wind out of their sails!).

Cry Baby - We finally have a commentator who's not afraid to speak her mind and address the issues. Her research is phenomenal and her choice of guests will only add to her credibility. The new girl on the block will win out over the tired old guys - like Billy boy.

I love her show. It is funny that she can't get any republicans on her show. What are they afraid of? Come on Palin I dare you to meet your match.. She will wipe that mooseburger smile off your ugly face.

Most people are tired of being lied to. Maddow uses a "common sense" approach.

It's a great show and I hope she continues to grow in viewership. We need calm, but passionate reporting on what is going on these days. Scary times, with not enough people paying attention to the facts.

I like her because (so far..) she has been quite consistent.
To put it another way, I appreciate the absence of bullshit.

As opposed to, say, Olbermann, and his pimping Obama.

Rachel Maddow is an excellent communicator. She makes her points clearly and concisely, and supports them with the facts necessary to provide the audience with a clear understanding of what she is saying, and why it is important. When she gives her opinions, she is clear that it IS her opinion, and explains her thinking behind it.

She never acts as though she is more important than the information she is sharing.

I am gratified to see that these aspects that have made me an ardent listener of her radio program, are also found in her television program.

vfx's picture

I watched the first show with my wife who barely knows of Rachel. She was not impressed. That show was pretty empty. I said they would get better and boy was I right. Last nights compilation of McSame's week of gaffs was wonderful and we cheered at the screen. As good as it is getting with new segments and fleshed out scripts I still want more. As her new video support crew learns her style, things will get even more depth and tighter.

Best part of the show -actually reading progressive statements at the bottom of the screen. Priceless!
Worst part -Rachel and Keith doing the same story. The two might want the follow the lead of TDS and Colbert, they do a pretty good job of not repeating the same jokes.

And she started on Air America Radio. Remember when that station started. Right around 2004. We need to keep up the media fight. Media Matters. Let the train keep rolling. Make the train keep rolling. NovaM. Crooks and Liars. Rachel Maddow. Roll baby Roll.

The reason why Rachel is successful is because she speaks the truth. O'Liely, Limpball's are throwing a fit, because their audience is mostly older rural red necks who listen to their every word as if it's gospel. The GOP is losing younger voters. Billo and Rush will always find an audience. The same arrogant, ignorant, pigheaded morons like themselves.

Looks like they just figured they can't do anything about all the repressed Republicans:

Foley avoids state charges
September 20, 2008
WEST PALM BEACH — Florida officials have closed their two-year investigation targeting U.S. Rep. Mark Foley, saying they found "insufficient evidence" for filing criminal charges for his allegedly sending salacious electronic messages to underage congressional pages.

Results of a state investigation were released Friday. A separate FBI investigation hasn't been closed. The state report comes from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, where detectives have struggled to get access to computer information from Congress to finalize their report.

Rachel's sexual orientation is not at issue and bringing it up is offensive. Unless of course, you're privy to the sexual proclivities of all the pundits (let's see, Neil Cavuto, doggy style; Rush Limbaugh-bottom (since he'd crush his partner any other way); Tom Brokaw-lights off, missionary position and of course, Brit Hume-with a paid "escort" only), let's not go there, unless you want the site team to delete your posts.

I find it hilarious that (R) voters believe their party is
'conservative'...your far from conservative. just start
with nation building and government bailouts. you
want to believe your conservative but many on the
right are voting for social/cultural issues. this is the
group of people they relate with....not the issues.
you can see with the personal judgement and intolerance about rachel maddow.

when you bring rep.foley, sen. vitter(sex),cindy mccain(drugs),bush(alcoholic),todd palin(DWI),
sen. craig(bathroom),cheney's daughter(gay) that seems to be different.
please keep your culture club intolerance/hypocrisy to yourself.

If democrats had nominated two hot lesbians we'd beat a born again church lady baby machine with nice boobs. How many babies will Palin have after she is elected 2, 4 more? Her husband will run a shadow government while she takes care of her babies.

Democrats will lose the election (again) because of republican sex fantasies. The flaccid DNC is letting this slip away. Wall Street has to protect their investment in Washington. They won't let Bush lose this one. Republicans vote Penis First - Pamela Anderson or any other porn star would just as easily win the republican ticket.

I so love Rachel - she is a breath of fresh air. I have listened to her since 2004 on Air America and I download her radio show on my iPod every single day. She backs EVERYTHING she says up with actual facts and she really doesn't go off on the "opinion" tangent like some do - even though I LOVE Keith too who does go off on the opinion tangent.

CBCNews in Canada has a cheerful piece on the Repugs 2008.

And they complain of us bloggers being mean and spiteful...
gotta laugh, reality bites, just ask the dying Republican party.

Palin has a toned-down version of the porn actress look favoured by this decade's woman, the overtreated hair, puffy lips and permanently alarmed expression. Bristol has what is known in Britain as the look of the teen mum, the "pramface." Husband Todd looks like a roughneck; Track, heading off to Iraq, appears terrified. They claim to be family obsessed while being studiously terrible at parenting. What normal father would want Levi "I'm a fuckin' redneck" Johnson prodding his daughter?

Nicole, my dear-- that conservative truth that anytime liberal polices are put in place the end result is disaster, and I"ll give some examples

1 Welfare-- that singlehandedly destroyed the black family
2 The ban of DDT-- we saved eagle eggs but millions of Africans have died
of malaria because of that nutty liberal ban
3 Abortion is now almost an acceptable form of birth control- are you
comfortable with millions of deaths (mostly minority and mostly democrat)
a year?
4 A failed school system-- unions and liberal "no fault, no bad student, no
discipline culture.

I can go on and on-- and don't give me social security or medicare- I pay dearly in taxes for those "liberal" policies.

Where to start?????

your first point: over 80% of the recipients of welfare are white single moms - not blacks.
your second point - link???
your third point - how arrogant of you to point to minorities and democrats as being the primary recipients of abortions- you are just pulling that out of your ass- btw- during the Clinton adminstration teenage pregnancies went down - during chimpy's adminstration teenage pregnancies have gone up - great job, repug.
your fourth point - your "failed" school system is a result of your idiot-in-chief's NOT funding his idiotic no child left behind program.

just saying.

Can you provide links to any of this to back it up? A lot of this sounds like Rand-ian truthiness. It sounds true, but has no facts to back it up.

Welfare DESTROYED the black family? Really? Gosh, there a quite a few families here in my neighborhood that didn't realize they were destroyed. Can you provide anything to substantiate your claim?

As to abortion, again, I hear a lot of truthiness, but little facts to back it up. In Freakonomics, they found that women didn't have fewer children as a result of having abortions available to them, they had them later in life, and that one of the unexpected results was a lower crime rate, because these children were born to engaged parents who were in a position to care for them, rather than to ill-prepared, financially-strifed, possibly single mothers. I see that million number thrown around a lot, but I don't see anything from conservative circles encouraging adoption of these unwanted babies you want born.

The ban of DDT--really? That's an example of a failed Liberal policy? Do you not think those Africans would be dead or dealing with horrific birth defects if the use continued? And if not, why not? How about we stick to this country for a moment? The New Deal protected this country for years and years until the Republicans systematically started dismantling it and now we have the results of Republican deregulation and "trickle down" bullshit. That's an EPIC FAIL of Conservative policies that you and I and our children and grandchildren will be paying for for generations.

I can speak directly to the failure of the California education system --as a part time employee -- and it has NOTHING to do with unions or discipline. It has EVERYTHING to do with the Republican-backed Prop 13. It has everything to do with Republican-instituted funding projects like NCLB, which forces teachers to teach to a test instead of to the children. It cuts funding for the very schools that need it the most. But again, it's easier for conservatives to blame the victims rather than look to solutions that may cost them a few cents more.

With the ratings she is getting, they will have to send some talking points types on over or it will truly be their loss. Keep up the good work, Rachel.

Sometimes she looses the sense that she belongs to a community where there are international norms, and there are differences between people waging a criminal war against a nation and a poor country and the people who are defending their country against this invasion, and in the end, she forgets that every country has a right to defend itself against any aggression and that right stands for Pakistan as well... so good for her on her greatness, I just hope that she comes out of her "bubble of supermacy" in which some like her live, including the many republicans and some democrates, and then she would be more effective and trusted.

You forgot the "clinton" in your long list of Dem presidents - you know, the only two-term Dem president since FDR? You must be locked in the time before Obama began touting Clinton's years, Clinton's economy, etc., etc., and began asking him and Hillary (1) to campaign for him, and (2) for advice on campaigning.

Have you read about how the Repubs stole Ohio in 2004? With a Democratic Sec of State here, we are hoping for much better, but touch screens are virtually impossible to secure. Check it out at http://www.alternet.org/democracy/99337

Obama needs Ohio. We're doing quite a bit here to prevent the fraudulent vote counting here, as the article indicates, but other important states aren't. If you think the Repubs aren't working out how to manipulate vote counting this time, think again! And don't forget how popular a Clinton or two were here in the primaries.

And I've seen Rachel once. As long as she's not in the tank the way Olbermann is, she'll be great! She was very entertaining and showing her Rhodes Scholar intelligence.

She's made Microsoft nbc almost watchable, just get rid of the offensive funeral commercials for Gen xers, you know the heritage ad, and this status quo corporate channel will be half watchable.

We all knew Rachel was good! Now if MSNBC would only listen to us and get rid of Joe Scarborough! People like Scarborough and Tucker Carlson just drag a person's mood down! They are so offensive, I find it's like being in the middle of unpleasant mayhem! I just ask the big wigs at NBC to observe the way Rachel handles controversy, and they way Scarborough and Carlson handle it! Like day and night!

Go Rachel! Wouldn't miss your show for anything!

Lincoln was a Republican. And certainly not a liberal. Though for a conservative, he was one hell of a leader. It's too bad they don't make conservatives like that anymore.

Joe Smerconborough has mental problems. I remember one of the steady panelists on "Morning Joe" saying that Maddow
was a good human being. It looked like he meant to say "as opposed to you, Joe".

Yay!

I'm a Nielsen family and all three televisions (I know, right?) are set to Rachel as I'm usually walking in and out of rooms at that hour. I don't want to miss a minute. It's nice to think that we're helping, in however small a way, this brilliant and incisive woman (who is also just about the most telegenic person on the tube) get good ratings. Marry me, Rachel?

"You forgot the “clinton” in your long list of Dem presidents - you know, the only two-term Dem president since FDR"

Just for the sake of clarity, GW is the only the fourth president to serve two full terms since FDR. (assuming he does finish his second term)

And Clinton and GW are the first consecutive full term presidents since Madison and Monroe. (1825)

The other two full term presidents since FDR are Eisenhower and Reagan.

Truman, LBJ and Nixon all served more than one term, though of the three, Nixon was the only one elected to two terms as president. As we know, Truman and LBJ were elected as VP, and became president when the presidents they served with died in office.

Correction:

And Clinton and GW are the first consecutive *two* full term presidents since Madison and Monroe. (1825)

Speaking of Scarborough, anyone know anything about whatever happened to the investigation of him and that secretary that was found murdered in his office about 6 years ago? Just wonderin'.

If only Obama had picked Rachel for his VP. ;-)

My 90 yr old father called me last night and asked me if I ever watched "that Rachel girl on TV." He's twitterpated with her. :-D

Great show Rachel, You and KO are my only TV watched. The others make me want to break my TV. I am intelligent enough to make up my own mind. Keep up the good work.
