These past couple of months have turned me into a political talk show junkie. The Obama v. Clinton throwdown sure has me hooked on Keith Oberman and the best show to ever run against Jeopardy - Hardball with Chris Matthews. First of all this show has the best name ever. So great that I named Mr. Friend's new dog Hardballs.

He's pretty much crazy just like Chris Matthews and his guests. Among my favorites: the guy who looks just like Murray from Flight of the Conchords (he makes us yell "Murray! in a New Zealand accent), the newspaper reporter who criticizes the Bush administration and the lady in front of the Seattle backdrop. These guys sure know how to play Hardball!
