Rachel Maddows

I've been watching her (I watch all the news programs to get the different takes on things).  She's a pleasure to watch.  Very intelligent. 

Regarding the debate, my husband has worked with the government for years.  What he does is top secret so I don't really know much about that but he has explained a lot to me about what is going on in the world throughout the years.  He said a lot of what Obama talked about was probably too subtle to grasp for most people who were watching the debate and that was unfortunate because he was right.  Obama had a better understanding of what happened when Russia "invaded" Georgia.  It's not as simple as most people think.  He also thinks Obama has a better understanding of the situation in Iraq and has a better grasp of things going on in the world in general. 

As far as the economy - it's a mess.  I would have liked to have heard more solutions and details also but I don't think either one of them has the answers to that right now.  It's going to take time and a whole lot of people to work on - not just the next president.

I listened to her on Air America, but much prefer her on TV.  She is very knowledgeable and does not get angry with those who disagree with her.  -- Uncle Pat.  Love the logo -"It's Pat."
