Mary Matalin : best thing that could happen to hillary is lose iowa

Tim Russert: why

Matalin: she's like Rocky she's needs to be hit a few times in order get angry enough to win

Russert: but in the meantime Obama would hurt her

Matalin: yeah but Obama is a terrible candidate i'm very concerned about this

Mike Murphy: the Empress has no clothes on

Bob Shrum: she's has run a good campaign look at all those planted questions - genius

James Carville: Obama has no mandate - hillary has a much more ambitious fake health plan

Russert: but she wouldn't answer the most crucial question facing america - driver's licenses for people who can drive

Murphy: she's weak and not charsimatic and not likeable that's the magic fairy dust which Romney clearly has

Russert: karl rove and Bush like her

Matalin: she suffers from front-runnerism which is why she's needs to lose to find her authentic voice

Shrum: ted kennedy, john kerry and al gore could decide this election

Russert: no one trusts her and men hate her

Carville: it's a problem

Murphy: she's going to lose because she's polarizing

Russert: Hillary says Edwards is throwing mud and Obama says hey I lived in a foreign country when i was growing up and hillary says he's a like a little kid -- she's using the RNC talking points

Hillary: we can't afford on the job training

Obama: what the fuck is her experience anyway

Matalin: Democrats only have one foreign policy - hating America

Carville: let me respond to that by shilling for Hillary

Russert: you just blew my mind

Russert: wow Romney and Huckabee doing well in Iowa

Panel: heh heh

Russert: no one trusts Rudy Giuliani

Murphy: yes it's very open - Romney's got a problem even though he's leading

Russert: Huck has got the creationist vote that's key

Murphy: a damaged Romney goes into New Hampshire which will mean Rudy wins

Matalin: he's the same old wonderful wacko dood

Russert: ok

Matalin: Huckabee is a tax and spend liberal

Russert: why is Huckabee so strong?

Matalin: which is where Republicans live!

Murphy: we can bring Fred back to life is we use jumper cables

Shrum: things could change

Matalin: people love guns it's a lifestyle thing like being gay or cross dressing which Rudy has also done

Russert: all the women in my family pack heat

Matalin: well of course they do fathead

David Brooks: Rudy is a shining light of optimism in this land - he loved immigrants in 1996

Rudy: we should build a fence to electrocute non english speaking immigrants
