I've got a new man-crush, and it's on Lawrence O'Donnell. Last night, filling in for Chris Matthews, he asked direct, thoughtful questions to this healthcare protestor, building off her previous statements and following up on the points she raised. He was also honest about where he was coming from, and appeared genuinely interested in her responses. Although he clearly didn't think her positions were newsworthy, he treated her with respect and was civil the entire time. He did this while exposing Katy Abram, the interviewee and town-hall protester, for the fraud she is. Articles have already detailed how Republicans have given scripts and action guides for undermining town hall meetings to supporters. By being skilled in his questioning, O'Donnell was able to show that her camera-grabbing 15-minutes were about as genuine as Joe the Plumber's. And for that he is my new man-crush.
