James: If you want to liveblog somewhere, then that’s great! If you’re talking about the actual ERT staff? We’ll stick to making our own announcements, thanks.

Speaking of mortgages — KO seems to compare with McCain on his many “residences” — Countdown, MSNBC breaking news, MSNBC election coverage, NBCU election breaks (whatever those are called), Football Night in America, Daily Kos….I wonder if he gets confused. Oh wait, he’s amibextrous!

This word just in.

Tweety and Keith will host Saturday’s Obama veep reveal at high noon ET/9 AM PT (just in case you didn’t get the text message,) plus a special Staurday edition of Countdown at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT.

Oh, don’t forget REAL LIVE BLOGGING as well, both Saturday, PLUS as an added bonus, both the Democratic and Republican Conventions as well. Not only are they blowing out the budget, they’ll take out a second mortage just to do so! (We kid beacuse we love.)

Just checked in at “Tumbleblogging Olbermann.”

I guess KO is taking over the world — sort of the media’s Putin.

First Rita Cosby, now Dan Abrams and next Chris Matthews and Bob Costas. Watch out Brian Williams, he has you in his sights!

I wish KO did run the network as I would love the programming that would be on MSNBC and the parent network. I do miss my day part MSNBC that’s preempted for the Olympics. Those long blonde bimbos on CNN are driving me nuts!

I guess we can expect to see a new “Maddow Watch” blog in short order (I wonder if it will attack Rachel’s sex life as well?). I guess KO and Maddow should take all that as a compliment as it shows Faux Fans fell extemely threatened!

I think that McCain may just look at Lieberman to get some of the Jewish vote from Obama, especially in NY and Florida.

I know my senior citizen Jewish parents (Arizona residents) are usually Democrats, but they somehow believe that Obama is Muslim or somehow aligned with Muslim crap. They hate McCain, their own senator, but do love Lieberman. I’m afraid many other older Jewish voters may be as uninformed and could got that way.

At this point, if I ever meet Gibson or Limbaugh, I will risk the lawsuit and punch them in the face. That’s my doctor they are talking about. D:<

I find it vaguely sweet that Keith is so gung-ho to defend his girl. :pinches his cheeks: Such chivalry. Not that Rachel needs it. She is often Above That Sort Of Thing, I always gathered.

Also, we need to contect McCain labelling Lieberman as a Republican on the ticket. I want it to be Republican-Democrat, because I know a lot of people in the Midwest will not be okay with that.
