...throwing, Maddow might be just the sweet sister the place needs. Aside from having articulate, exhaustively researched opinions on everything from al-Qaeda to AIDS, she's cheerful, careful and civil. She has strong opinions but doesn't like forcing her interview subjects, or her listeners and viewers, to reach for the heart medication. As an MSNBC guest, she's often been paired with - or, as she says, "chained at the ankle to" - right-winger Pat Buchanan; yet they get along fine in their adversarial roles. If anyone gets belligerent on her new show, it won't be Rachel...
...degree, that's true. Palin's pro-life credentials are impeccable - she opposes abortion in all circumstances, even in cases of rape and incest, except when a delivery will result in death.

He told McCain's heroic story yet again, but this time it was to set up a relentless contrast to the Ivy League guy who rose through Chicago-machine politics to reach the state legislature and vote "present" 130 times because "deciding 'yes' or 'no' was too tough" on his way to becoming a "celebrity Senator" who "has never led anything. Nothing. Nada." By the end Giuliani was ignoring the teleprompter, riffing his speech, eating into Palin's prime time, and the crowd...
