Oh my God!!! I said the Pat Buchanan thing this morning.
Man, I am having definite Chuck withdrawal.
Chuck hasn't been doing First Read or the new thing, "Next Read" (no offense to Mark Murray, who is clearly a nice guy). If there's no Chuck, why bother to record this stuff? I'm already fast-forwarding through 3 hours of Morning Joe just to get my mere 10 minutes of Chuck insight.
Please MSNBC, have some pity on us and give us a little more Chuckie T!
I saw The Chuck this morning. Just a little more chipper than before. He even threw in a reference to Ol' Man Barnicle and Paddy Buchanan being the old geezers from the Muppet Show again.
I know I've got it bad.
I find myself while I'm driving, circling towns on my GPS screen with a dry erase marker mumbling things like, "If these two towns go Obama, it's over."
Have also contacted a lawyer to look into legally changing my name to Chuck Todd.
