You mean he's not already on the payroll? This guy is as much a Democrat as his buddy Lieberman and Zell Miller. He's a complete joke. It's interesting how many of Clinton's most zealous supporters are now Fox News contributors. Makes me glad she's not our nominee.

The problem for the progressive coalition is that, if Lanny "belongs" at Fox, so too do many members of the progressive coalition. I will assert that the poster, in reality, "belongs" at Fox as much as Lanny Davis does. This campaign has been ugly, ane while many of Clinton supporters watched Fox for the first time during portions of this campaign, we didn't do it because we are any less progressive than Obama supporters. We did it because we felt that our former news venues were in the tank for Obama. We could have been wrong about Olbermann (guffaw), but then again that's what happens in a campaign.

I think it's kind of cute that folks are pounding on Lanny Davis now, even though the man has devoted his entire life to the Democratic Party. I think the pounding and the ridicule speaks far more about the serious rift in the Democratic Party than it does about the progressive credentials of Lanny Davis.

There are real problems in the progressive coalition folks. Even if Senator Obama wins, and we'll all vote for him, there are people on this very website who proclaimed that Obama's victory meant that "we" took "our" party back. Where does that leave the rest of us who have supported the Democratic Party for decades?

Lanny Davis isn't the issue; Lanny's new job is a tangible reflection of the real rift in our Party. Mock him, ridicule him, but you remain no more progressive or loyally Democratic than he does. I know what I say is not linear, but it is so. Don't let me spoil the day's witch burning though. Have it at real progressives (chuckle).

It just goes to show you that Lanny Davis, like most people, can be bought.

But the Obamans who still maintain that MSNBC didn't go in the tank for their guy are either delusional or stubborn. Don't misunderstand me. Olbermann, Matthews et al. have a perfect right to slant the news any way they want. It's their shows ... until the boss tells them otherwise.

Fair and balanced? That only applies to the networks who employed guys like Tim Russert (who didn't let his political views overshadow his work). it doesn't apply to Fox (Lanny Davis will fit in well there) and it sure doesn't apply to MSNBC. The only question remaining is, if Obama wins, which MSNBC guy will be his Press Secretary.

Lanny Davis said he would rally behind Obama, clearly he lied. Joining Fox News, Clinton should be ashamed of him.

Those who think Fox News has been fair and balanced are delusional. If you think MSNC has been pro-Obama, Fox News has been shamelessly anti-Obama by spreading false rumors and distorting the truth.

Have fun Lanny, you are one of the reasons I started hating Hillary. You did nothing more but to give her a bad name.

Since Lanny couldn't help Hillary put a stake through Obama's heart in the primaries, he's now been assigned to join Fox to put a stake through his heart in the general, to clear the way for the Clinton "Comeback" to end all Clinton Comebacks in '12. More total delusion in Clintonland. The Clintons and their rich supporters simply can't accept the reality that Obama's revolution in fund-raising has taken the future of American politics out of their hands. Politics has been the power hobby of these supporters for decades. Now Obama's put power in the hands of the small donor masses. Lanny's a key point man for the counter-revolution for these fat cats. Too bad McCain's such a loser--and the war and $5 gas are so unpopular--that all the slings and arrows of outrageous Atwaters and Roves and Swift Boaters cannot smear him into submission this year.

You are the weasel, Karen. You are a zero.

Now..now cythera4, you wouldn't be a troll by any chance would you?

Listen I never started this primary season with any dislike for Hillary. I really had no bad opinion of her as I believe in the Democtatic party and would have been happy if she was our nominee. I liked Obama because I had seen his speech at the Democratic convention in '04 and I started to follow his career. I really began paying more attention the night he won Iowa and just like everyone else I was impressed with his calm character and thoughtful aproach. After Iowa, Hillary won New Hampshire and it was a toss up for all to see and at that point it was for either one of them to win or loose. It was only after New hampshire that I saw a side to Hillary and her campaign that was ugly and not the party I had supported and been a part of since 1992. From the comments about Obamas' drug use from Hillarys' campaign advisor, Bill Clintons attack on Obamas' rightfull stance on the Iraq war, Hillarys' campaign out landish comments in Nevada regarding the system (a system they had set up) and the law suit that her supporters initiated against their own party to Bill Clinton in South Carolina. All of their activities turned people against them and the worst offender in my opinion was Lanny Davis. Lanny Davis took every opportunity to slander Obama and he was so evil and disgusting that I did not only hate Lanny Davis, but he managed to do what Hillary had failed, he managed to make me dislike Hillary. In his effort to promote the Hillary Land talking points he completely turned off millions who would have given Hillary a second glance. Lanny opened a window into the soul of a woman that we thought we knew, but yet still remained a mistery and that opening led to a dark, void, angry, hateful, empty, confused, vindictive person. I hope Lanny stays at Faux News, because he made me dislike Hillary and I never wanted to dislike Hillary. So all in all Lanny Davis is an opportunist and a Weasel.

Who cares if Olbermann was "in the bag" for Obama? He's a commentator, not a journalist. His show is in juxtaposition for the blatherings of O'Reilly. And I don't believe he pretends to be anything different. He never would have spouted off to Hillary if she hadn't stooped lower than low to bring up the RFK assassination "in June," among other low blows. (see her comments on who is prepared to be commander-in-chief) And he was right on. And if he and Matthews were clearly pro-Obama, well . . . so what? Really. So what? They are commentators. Take them or leave them. It's nothing like CNN leaving all journalistic integrity and keeping blowhards like Dobbs or inane question-asker Blitzer in prime time. I used to rely on CNN for somewhat balanced journalism. But that was long ago. Now I rely on multiple web sources to piece together what's going on. But I digress . . .

Our friend Lanny was after one thing - power. He didn't give a rat's ass about our country or who became president. He hitched his wagon to Hillary's star and fought tooth and nail to get her where HE wanted her. When that fell through, he trotted off to a place where he could pile invective and false expertise in the happy company with other charlatans.
