MSNBC's Chuck Todd: McCain camp is "speechless"

 

Watch this clip with a hat tip to Josh Marshall, who has a pretty good analysis up, noting correctly that "the aim of this speech was not eloquence but strength."

MSNBC? What's wrong can't find the video of Chris Matthews getting a tingle up his leg?

Oh, this is a good poi... Wait, Bunch posted it. Minus 40 credibility points.

McLame is going to look like that drugged faux-nazi leader from that Star Trek episode following Obama. "Speechless"?....Babbling will be more like it.

McCain's camp released a response...

The context of this discussion was the McCain response.

Politburo: I thought the McCain's camps response was fine. Does Chuck Todd expect them to release a 20 page, point by point, response? (I like Chuck Todd. It seems everyone is off their game when they are forced to be on air for days without a break, though.)

I can't read Chuck Todd's mind. I was just providing the context. I would agree that the response was OK, as there really is no way to succinctly respond to a long oratory, as you mention.
