Naked Promotional Announcement (Keith Olbermann)

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6210240

SECAUCUS -- A quick and haplessly generic answer now to the 6,000 emails and the hundreds of phone calls.

Firstly, thank you.

Secondly, we will indeed be resuming our coverage of the voting irregularities in Ohio and Florida -- and elsewhere -- on this evening's edition of Countdown {8:00 p.m. ET}. The two scheduled guests are Jonathan Turley, an excellent professor of law at George Washington University, and MSNBC analyst and Congressional Quarterly senior columnist Craig Crawford.

For Jonathan, the questions are obvious: the process and implications of voting reviews, especially after a candidate has conceded, even after a President has been re-elected. For Craig, the questions are equally obvious: did John Kerry's concession indeed neuter mainstream media attention to the questions about voting and especially electronic voting, and what is the political state of play on the investigations and the protests.

Phase Two, in which Doris gets her oats...

Keep them coming. Email me at KOlbermann@msnbc.com

Keep it up Dems. Usually when you're at the bottom of a hole, you STOP DIGGING. Kinda like the bible says "A dog returns to its vomit". THey just can't let this go.

The Dems were able to generate alot of votes/sympathy by having the 2000 election being viewed as 'stolen', 'illegitimate', etc...

Without the "anyone but Bush" vote they would have lost very badly...

So, if they can paint the whole republican party as "vote stealers", etc.... they think they can get votes in 2006 & 2008....

I think everyone is SO TIRED of this election that this will only grate on nerves..... but they may think they can't win on issues, so they'll win some other way.....

Interestingly enough, ABC News addressed Olbermann's "concerns" in their final segment on tonight's broadcast. It seems to me they blew both he and his tinfoil hat crowd out of the water. Whoulda thunk Peter Jennings at al might take THAT position Wink

I've watched Keith Olbermann repeatedly over the campaign, which is kind of like alcoholism (repeating the same mistakes over and over again, expecting a different result).

He is a Jon Stewart Wannabe who is not cool - like the high school nerd who can't tell a joke but keeps on trying anyway - and his journalistic credibility flounders between the viewer thinking he may be serious, and the viewer fearing that Olbermann thinks he's serious.

Bottom line, MSNBC has the ratings of a broken-cable elevator for a reason. Sooner or later, Bill Gates or someone with clout will turn it on one night by mistake, and decide to pull the plug forever.

Then Oberman can fulfill his destiny and start looking for a job selling male enhancement devices on post midnight infomercials.
