Chris Matthews Takes NY Observer Cover Story, Continues Obama Love
February 6th, 2008
“I’ve been following politics since I was about 5,†said Mr. Matthews. “I’ve never seen anything like this. This is bigger than Kennedy. [Obama] comes along, and he seems to have the answers. This is the New Testament. This is surprising.â€
“I really think there’s a Salieri-Mozart thing going on here,†said Mr. Matthews. “Salieri was the court composer who did everything right. He was impressive. Along comes Mozart. And everybody couldn’t get the music out of their heads. Hillary is really good at doing what she is supposed to do. She’s impressive. He’s inspirational. That’s the difference. One’s the court composer. And one is the genius. There’s something he does. I don’t know what. Oprah said it. It’s not that he’s black. It’s that he’s brilliant.â€
Read the whole article in the New York Observer.
My thought? In the world of media bias MSNBC has become the new FOX News and Matthews the new O’Reilly.

I’m not sure. I can see Mr. Matthews point. Mrs. Clinton is fantastic, but Obama - even if you see nothing but a shell - is passionate and exciting. I wonder if there is bias in Matthews/MSNBC or just really saying what he thinks and allowing you to take it as you will. (Whereas bias would be trying to convince you of it).
