Needs to disappear from the MSNBC line up. When Scarborough isn't dishing out a few random LOLs (mostly courtesy of that either neo-con Willy Geist) he's coming off as a sore loser best known for pal'ing around with Pat Buchanan. Recently he's been coming off as a typical angry Florida panhandler.

MSNBC, please to replace the Morning Joe show with the Morning Mika show.

I personally love Morning Joe. He and Pat are my two favorite Republicans. I think Mika is absolutely adorable and I have a girl crush on her. Although Joe can talk it up pretty loudly I find myself agreeing with him often. For example, I totally agreed with him this morning about the car industry. I am in favor of them NOT being replaced.

I actually like Scarborough, he's mostly fair but I do think he's upped the passive aggressiveness as of late, needs to tone it down some.

So if you disagree with him, he should be silenced?

I also like Joe, have not seen him in awhile though. He does need to step it up and act like a conservative or claim something else....

I didn't say he should be SILENCED like it's 1984

I said that MSNBC should get in a new anchor that isn't him

I like Joe and Mika. I think they make a good contrast, and keep the show moving along, covering a wide range of topics. They have good guests with interesting "takes" on events and different points of view.

The only person I have a problem with is Pat Buchanan... not because I disagree with him (I often agree with him, and I'm a Democrat) but the quality and highness of his voice is just fingernails on a blackboard to my tender ears. I wish someone could (or would) teach him how to moderate his voice. I'm often afraid my crystal will shatter when he gets excited.

Oh, and I love Willie Giest (Geist?)

Geist is funny, but he's really a neo-con disguised by his humor

he got a few LOLs in with Tom Friedman saying "we are going to help this up and comer sell some books" and skating around the Rock Center rink on Election Day but yeah he's a neo-con and thats NAGL

hey MSNBC, let me pitch you some ideas in place of morning Joe

first choice- Tamron's Tea
second choice- Morning Mika

Love Morning Joe--interesting personalities and viewpoints--funny and informative--none of the silliness of the Today show with its inane guests and "features" and all points of view are presented--unlike some other MSNBC shows it does let the Pat Buchanan and the Lawrence O'Donnell types have at one another rather than toting the "party" line-- and way more balanced than Fox

Get over yourself. It's commercial TV if viewers don't like the product they can complain to the producer of the product for something different.

I thought you folks loved the free market?
