Okay, I loves me some Rachel. I deeply love her politics, her brain, and even her hair. But, last night, when the camera cut from the Roland Burris press conference to Rachel wearing spelunking headgear, I had to cover my face with my hoodie and pull the drawstrings tight. Huck Maddow was trying to make a point about the Senate’s caving in (hence the spelunking visual metaphor) to Blagojevich’s appointment. And it was an important point to make. And she made it. In the most uncomfortable way possible. The image of a Rachel in a miner’s hat on LIVE television will stay with me forever. Watch above or in a new window.
