Say It Ain't So Already

Ed Schultz Says “Krystal Ball” is a “Democratic Strategist”

When I worked on Outfoxed and at the Newshounds for lo those five years, I watched Fox “News” claim that every Tom, Dick, Harry and Jane it slapped up on the screen was a “strategist.”

You wouldn’t believe how pitiful the credentials of some of those “strategists” were.  I.e., they had no business whatsoever being sold to We the People as experts.

So when I happened upon The Ed Show tonight on MSNBC and I saw Ed talking to a woman named Krystal Ball — who he billed as a “Democratic strategist” — I had to know more.

Krystal Ball?  Seriously?  Didn’t that name alone make Ed’s bookers just a teeny weeny bit suspicious?

Guess not.

This is from KrystalBall‘s website:

About Krystal

Krystal Marie Ball is a 29-year-old former Congressional candidate and current Democratic Strategist; in addition to being a Certified Public Accountant, software engineer, small business owner and mother. Krystal was recently named by Forbes Magazine as number 21 on the magazine’s “Most Powerful Women in the Mid Term Elections” list.

So, Krystal Ball has been a lot of things in her 29 years and one of her proudest accomplishments is ingratiating herself into the 1% club with bazillionaire Steve Forbes (a 1%-er extraordinaire).

Hum.

Ed Schultz claims to be a man of the people but he touts a “Democratic strategist” with a dubious background who’s on Steve Forbes’ — Steve Forbes’! — favorites list?

Hey Ed:  Read this to learn more about your gal pal Krystal.
