Breaking News: Thompson Is Tall

Posted: Tuesday, October 09, 2007 3:58 PM by Chuck Todd

From NBC's Chuck Todd
My colleague, Domenico, and myself are both on site and in the control truck live-blogging today's debate. Quick first impressions after watching all 9 candidates come on stage, Fred Thompson is TALL! And so is Mitt Romney. More importantly, Rudy Giuliani, standing next to Fred Thompson is quite the site. Thompson's height advantage is striking on the TV screen.

Damn Elitist web site. Even the evil Fox offers feeds for slower connections :-)

Huh, I can't believe you get paid for this junk. If you have nothing to report that is important, say anything, is that what you call good journalism? Here is some good stuff next time you are stuck. Where do they get their suits pressed? What kind of toast do they eat, white, rye or wheat? if you only had ten minutes till the end of the world, what famous person would you want to meet? I could go on and on but I am not getting paid to do your job.

It's a funny thread. Jeez-ums, grow a sense of humor. These type of posts make reading this blog fun. Not every thread is off-the-wall, so I believe your criticism is unwarranted.

Same goes for the criticism of Chris Matthews. He does his job and he is darn good at it.
