The Rise of David Gregory!


This morning, Tom Brokaw announced on Meet the Press that David Gregory will be the new moderator of Meet the Press. What do we think about this choice? I like David, but I think that Tim Russert would have been rooting for Chuck Todd. Check out the new poll to weigh-in on this one.

LAME CHOICE

KARL ROVE'S DANCE PARTNER

WHY NOT A REAL JOURNALIST WITH SOME SUPERB KNOWLEDGE AND INTELLIGENCE - LIKE RACHEL MADDOW?

I must agree, I'm not too excited about DG. I like that he's kind of a smart ass (and what a dancer), but he's a sorry replacement for Big Tim. I see Chuck Todd is leading in your FF poll, however, I am am not a fan of Todd. He's a smart guy, but I refuse to be informed on politics form a guy with such ridiculous facial hair. Shave it, Chuck.

As much I love Rachel -- it's like having a crush on Olbermann without all the weird sexual baggage (well, some of the weird sexual baggage), I would hate to see her saddled with an institution like MTP where she'd have to dial down the liberal rage and snarkiness. I like Rach right where she is.

The problem is there's no one at (MS)NBC who can fill Russert's shoes. He was part of a dying breed. Best of luck to Dave, though.
