A distasteful comment about Chelsea Clinton by an MSNBC anchor, David Shuster could imperil Sen. Hillary Clinton's participation in future presidential debates on the network, a Clinton spokesman said.
Clinton communications director Howard Wolfson on Friday said David Shuster distasteful comment about Chelsea Clinton was beneath contempt" and disgusting.
"I, at this point, can't envision a scenario where we would continue to engage in debates on that network," he added.
Wolfson pointed to what he called a pattern of tasteless comments by MSNBC anchors about the Clinton campaign. Weeks ago, "Hardball" host Chris Matthews apologized to the former first lady after suggesting her political career had been made possible by her husband's philandering.
Over and over again we have seen the media especially Msnbc going after senator Clinton, sometimes harshly just so that she can make mistakes, and her opponent can have an edge over her, we saw that in the msnbc debates, we have seen that many times on the Chris Matthews's hardball show, and now this David shuster's distasteful comment, about chelsea being pimped by the Clinton camp to beg celebraties, and senators to support her mother's presidential bid. Today the network was all over the air apologizing to the Clintons for their stupid comments.
I hope they play fair from now on.

Hillary really needs the debates right now to pull out of any. I really don't see her doing such a thing.
I agree with LT. It won't happen, because Obama has so much momentum at this point that Clinton is desperate to regain it.
Thanks for that video of Keith Olbermann. To be honest, I quit watching MSNBC a while ago because of the constant skewed reporting on the candidates. They aren't much better than Fox News anymore. I'm glad to see that they are all "appalled" by Schuster's comment, it's just too darned bad that they aren't appalled by Chris Matthews disgusting remarks, also. Why wasn't he asked to apologize for his statement that the only reason Hillary Clinton was elected to the Senate was because of the sympathy vote due to her husband's affair with Monica? Chris got away with it because he's one of their "stars".
It's true, Hillary does want to debate, unfortunately, the coward Obama doesn't want to. It's easier for him to hide behind his pretty speeches than to have to answer real questions. He also refused the debate on Politico and used the excuse it would take time away from his campaign and meeting with "the people". Ha! If this guy still has to "prepare" for a debate after all the debates he's been in, he must not be very astute. He's just afraid of a one on one with Hillary because he knows she'll wipe the floor with him.
There's lots of news on the blogs who aren't "obomabots". It seems that Obama is speaking in Wisconsin and taking EVERY single Clinton idea on the economy and making it his own...at least he's trying to. The guy has no original ideas and anything beyond his preacher talk about hope and change, he has to steal from Hillary...and he even took some from McCain! McCain called him on it and said he was a phony.
Of course, you won't hear this on the main stream media.
Oh, and I looked at the Obama blog. They are going into Hillary's phone bank and making the calls with an Obama message instead. This erases the calls and keeps Hillary's volunteers from using them.
Dirty tricks...that's the Obama campaign. But then again, you won't hear this in the main stream media who have all drunk the Obama juice.
