Really? I know they're not MSNBC, but I've always considered them left of center.

CNN is sycophantic/establishment: they kiss whichever ass happens to occupy the biggest chairs at the time of broadcast. It's why everybody outside DC hates them, regardless of ideology.

No wonder the Republicans don't like him.

Yup, it's happening. Closest thing to a personality transplant that Mitt can get. Romney can talk business and Christie can sling the red meat.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) said Sunday that he would consider being Mitt Romney’s vice presidential running mate if Romney asked him, but said he remained skeptical that he would ever be on the ticket.

Christie, who previously denied that he was ready to be president but then briefly considered entreaties to run, also appears to have softened his resistance to the idea of being vice president.

“I absolutely believe that, come November 2012, I’m going to be governor of New Jersey and not in any other office,” Christie said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “But the fact of the matter is, if Gov. Romney, who’s going to be our nominee, picked up the phone and called me to talk about this, I love my country enough and I love my party enough to listen.”

I can't agree. CNN is pretty reliable, especially internationally. Only when viewing Fox does it seem liberal, kind of like watching MSNBC and thinking CNN is conservative. Nancy Grace is down right punchable.

I am hard-pressed to name anything more wrong with the 24-hour news cycle than Nancy Grace.

I agree with dajafi's assessment, but I'd also remind that left of right is not the same as left of center.

If Boehner were his running mate, would that be a balanced ticket?

Dear GOP,
Get your shit together. It was funny once, it's not funny now.
Love Jeff

Fivethirtyeight has New Gingrich at an 84% chance to win the Florida primary at the moment.

The fuck is happening?

Newt is the NY Giants of politics. (Eagles are the Rick Perry).
