This morning on Morning Joe they were talking about Obama not having much experience or accomplishments in the Senate. Joe Klein actually brought up a very interesting point. There was another Senator who didn’t have much experience or accomplishments and became President, and was a very much loved President. That person? John Kennedy.

I wanted to bring this up because of something that happened on MSNBC last night. Huffington Post posted a video of Chris Matthews “humiliating” an Obama Surrogate last night. The surrogate, Texas State Senator Kirk Watson, was asked by Tweety to name one accomplishment Obama has had in Senate. When he couldn’t, Tweety kept pushing and pushing him.

Huffington Post didn’t include the last part of this segment though. At the end, Keith Olbermann asked Tweety to name one accomplishment of the entire Senate during that time. Matthews couldn’t and said that “would require much more work”. So highlighting the accomplishments of a single person is easier than naming one out of 100 people? That makes a lot of sense.
