Chuck Todd Cuts Ad For Mitch McConnell
Because Chuck Todd thinks politics is just a big game, it's no big deal for him to play ref and "disqualify" the Democratic candidate.
Here, ladies and gentlemen, is your "liberal media" at work.
In a debate last week with Mitch McConnell interview with an editorial board last week, Alison Lundergan Grimes refused to answer the question about who she voted for in 2012. Rightly so. While I realize some Obama supporters view this as denying the President, it's actually a pragmatic move when the other side is trying to wrap you in Obama paper as a way to trigger racial responses rather than rational ones.
Kentucky, after all, is still a Southern state with southern attitudes, especially in the rural areas. The question itself was a terrible one, and not germane to whether Grimes would be a good Senator. It was a no-win question and Grimes did the best she could.
But that's not good enough for "I love the game of politics" Chuck Todd. He felt the need to place his finger on the scales to weight it toward the GOP by declaring on last Friday's Morning Joe that Grimes had "disqualified herself." Sort of like jumping the gun on a swim meet or something.
That declaration is now featured in a McConnell attack ad on Grimes:
Congratulations, Chuck. I hope Meet the Press dies sooner rather than later. If you can't be neutral, just blow whoever you have to in the GOP to win it for Mitch.
