Chris Matthews Sure Is Scared That The Republicans Will Win Big This Year

Chris Matthews is scared. That means good things are likely to happen.

If you’re not familiar with Chris Matthews, he’s the MSNBC host who typically plays the race card whenever the Republicans are winning an argument. In so doing, he routinely demonstrates why his ratings are so low.

We can expect him to play the race card a lot this year, as Republicans are leading in the polls heading to November’s mid-term elections. He seems pretty frightened about the prospects of a Congress that might be controlled by people who believe in personal liberty and individual responsibility.

Last night on Hardball, he began his show by telling all 15 of his viewers that a Republican Congress will be “the beginning of the end” of the Barack Obama movement towards “full democratic government in this country.”

Of course, by “full democratic government” he meant “full Democratic government.” In other words, a country in which the Democrats have free rein and in passing laws that restrict your freedoms.

He then warned about a “slow, grinding halt” to not only repeal ObamaCare, but Barack Obama’s Presidency itself, with the legacy that it promised.

What Matthews fails to disclose there is that Barack Obama’s promise and his actual governance are not the same. Part of the President’s “promise” was that everyone under his health care law would be able to keep their existing health insurance. That promise didn’t pan out.

Neither did a lot of other promises that the President made. So, if the Republicans want to get rid of a law that perpetually demonstrates the President’s broken promises to the American people, then we’ll be happy to cheer them along.

Following that, Matthews basically went hysterical. He talked about the fact that Republicans will attempt to “suppress the vote” of people who voted for President Obama. He’s talking about Voter ID laws, which do nothing more than make Democratic vote fraud more difficult.

And, of course, Matthews couldn’t resist playing the race card. He decried a return to “something like Jim Crow days” if Republicans take control of Congress.

Yeah. We’ll have separate drinking fountains again if Mitch McConnell becomes Senate Majority Leader.
