Today's TRMS
We hope you all enjoyed Rachel filling in for David Gregory on Race for the White House tonight. But have no fear, there are still two more live hours of the Rachel Maddow Show coming up. On today's show Rachel will be talking to Steve Benen from the Carpetbagger Report about whether or not Obama is actually hitting McCain hard enough to win a presidential contest. And then David Bender will be here talking about Obama's week long vacation and whether or not he thinks it's a good thing for the tired candidate. Finally, Rachel welcomes Juan Cole back to the program. We want to know if the reports of a final agreement on a time line-- yes, you heard me, a time line-- has been reached between the Iraqi government and the Bush Administration.

Too much media!
I enjoyed the "behind the scenes" of trying to get work done at MSNBC, with so many distracting media inputs. I had a job eight or so years ago where TVs were mounted on the walls and playing constantly. We were an online business site, and it made sense for some of our editors to monitor CNBC and other financial networks. But I found it difficult to do my job with a TV set blaring above my head. I got into a bit of a pissing match with a management person because I turned my set's volume down when I arrived in the morning. Oh yeah, did I mention how they never turned the damned TVs off, therefore eating up lots of electricity?
