Yeah, Steve Kornacki is the bomb. Worth watching some of the other MSNBC crap for him, especially now that there should no longer be any Chris Matthews.MSNBC. I like Steve Kornacki’s maps and how he analyzes different states, counties and cities. Pretty accurate stuff.
I’ll be holed up in the Beatles thread.Yeah, Steve Kornacki is the bomb. Worth watching some of the other MSNBC crap for him, especially now that there should no longer be any Chris Matthews.
love Kornacki. I’ll mute the other stuff.Yeah, Steve Kornacki is the bomb. Worth watching some of the other MSNBC crap for him, especially now that there should no longer be any Chris Matthews.
Damn, I'm going to need to step up my game!I’ll be holed up in the Beatles thread.
I am kind of shocked that so many folks in this forum pay so much attention to political tv in the first place. If it wasn't for this forum I would have no idea what the ratings were for news networks or individual shows. Still baffles me why so many people are invested in those ratings.It's hard for me to imagine watching TV on election night.
I’ll have my TV on and still get info from my tablet. I don’t need to pay attention to the TV during commercials or other times when it’s not interesting.I am kind of shocked that so many folks in this forum pay so much attention to political tv in the first place.

Why would people want to literally sit through HOURS of commercials on election day instead of just getting the same info in real time on their phone/tablet/computer?
What's on the menu?I'll be online with about a dozen tabs open. I follow pretty much all of them and if anything really interesting happens it shows up on Twitter almost immediately. This is my superbowl. I'll be up all night and I took off work the day after.
I make my own pizza in a 16" cast iron skillet.What's on the menu?
Chicago style?I make my own pizza in a 16" cast iron skillet.
It comes out as more of a simple deep dish pizza than an actual Chicago style. I really enjoy making everything from scratch a lot more than I thought I would. Considering moving up to stone myself.sho nuff said:Chicago style?
I did one a few months ago in the cast iron...it was fantastic.
Next purchase is a stone hefty enough to handle the high temps of the Kamado Joe and make it outside.
This is the first time I’ve ever really cared. If Trump loses I won’t be happy but I’ll support the POTUS. If Trump wins the white women are going to lose their minds and I don’t want to miss a second of that.BoltBacker said:I am kind of shocked that so many folks in this forum pay so much attention to political tv in the first place.

I'm assuming there will still be wall-to-wall coverage on every station.What’s an election night? People really think this will be over in one night with states allowed to count mail in ballots days after the election is over?
I wish there were a way to know when Kornacki, John King, Harry Enten, etc. are on - then just toggle to that channel. More analysis of data - less talking heads.krista4 said:Yeah, Steve Kornacki is the bomb.

Record all three. Switch from one recording to the next to skip everything except the guy you want to see. If you're ever caught up to live on all three (doubtful), check out FFA/PSF for a bit then recheck your recordings.I wish there were a way to know when Kornacki, John King, Harry Enten, etc. are on - then just toggle to that channel.

They'll likely have Nate Silver too, for an extra dose of nerd.ABC.
I just like how they present the election. They have talking heads from both sides, and it's the one news channel I have found where they don't talk over each other. George Stephanopoulos does a really good job moderating the discussion, and the few times I have watched the talking heads have been really respectful to the folks on the other side during the discussion.
Prior to 2016 I watched more cable news on election night than almost the rest of the year combined. I find it interesting and as others pointed out, someone like Kornacki and the analytics are fascinating to me. I don't have a channel I will watch but will tune in to that guy some.BoltBacker said:I am kind of shocked that so many folks in this forum pay so much attention to political tv in the first place.

This mindset of wanting to watch the other side melt down is a contributor to why things are not good now in politics - and I'm guilty of it too.Fox
I'll probably record MSNBC to relive the evening if Trump wins. Although I seriously doubt there will be any final call until the end of November at the earliest.
My god, how is sober even an option here?My first decision is, am I watching sober, tipsy, or drunk.
Each has its merits. And also controls what channel/site i will focus on.
Honestly, the only two days a year where I watch any of the political cable news channels are election day and NYE, that's only because I actually like CNN's NYE show.Prior to 2016 I watched more cable news on election night than almost the rest of the year combined.

Silver's on contract w/ABC? Thanks, I'll add them to my rotation too.They'll likely have Nate Silver too, for an extra dose of nerd.
