It's baffling how nichols still commands mic time after the wisconsin debacle he so badly misread in real time. Nichols helped choreograph the return of the fab 14 senators which was the point where the uprising demobilized into an electoral recall campaign. He repeatedly romanticised and simultaneously supplied the apologetics for everything that followed, smugly laughing at walker's stupidity while walker ticked off victory after victory. It was nichols who trumpeted how amped up rural wisconsin was toward removing walker! It was nichols who pooh-poohed the pre-recall polling! It was nichols who focused on john doe rumors and helped downplay the collective bargaining issue inorder to attain wider appeal and end wisconsin's civil war! For him to be able to now revise his narrative is nauseating. His liberal gibberish climaxed 2 days before the election when he tried to argue that wisconsin dems had pulled off a real coup in getting clinton to come to wisconsin rather than obama! That clinton was everyone's first choice!

Nichols' credibility is zilch and he needs to have his sorry, wally cox-self escorted off the stage! Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T
