MSNBC's Joe Scarborough - alive!

Morning Joe is the best morning show of the three cable news networks, and now that MSNBC has decided to be a left-wing outlet to counter Fox News's right-wing tilt, Joe is finding himself a one-man island. Keith Olbermann got Dan Abrams fired, and now he's fighting back. When Olbermann interrupted Joe to tell him to get a shovel when joe was reporting positive McCain news, Joe took umbridge and fought back. Then this morning when David Shuster referred to "your party" Joe had none of it. He said he was more down the middle than any host on any show and mocked MSNBC for all their reporters claiming they're independent.

There's hype around behind-the-scenes fireworks between Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, but the more edge-of-your-seat viewing is now coming from Joe Scarborough. Can't wait to see if anything happens when he and keith are on at the same time again. And if Joe gets fired, my guess is CNN and Fox News will get into a bidding war.
