No politics. He still had good numbers (for his show). I have often slammed Joe for the fact that he does not represent the views of the "Redneck Riviera" of the Gulf Coast (his home). Why, because the people are heavy right and Joe is not. However, I think Joe is at his best with topics other that politics. He is doing more and more variety and he really shines, smiles and genuinely seems to enjoy himself. He is more of a showman at heart and I think he is trying to create his own style show with a lot less politics. Last night Joe Scarborough had a “Special” with Dateline. No politics.

It's greater than 1/2(50%), which is pretty darn good. If Arthur told his girlfriend that he's got 50%, when she's used to somewhere between 10% and 25%, she would be pretty happy.
