BEER WITH HIM? DO NOT WANT!!!!

Chris Matthews, head clown at MSNBC, is still stuck on the "guy you'd like to have a beer with" as a prerequisite to be President. I don't have to tell you how bad that metric turned out to be.

From MediaMatters:
MATTHEWS: He's [Sen. Barack Obama] not that good at that -- handshaking in a diner.


SHUSTER: No --

MATTHEWS: Barack doesn't seem to know how to do that right.


SHUSTER: -- he doesn't do that well. But then you see him in front of 15,000 people in some of these college towns, and that's why, Chris, we've seen Chelsea Clinton and Bill Clinton in Bloomington and South Bend and Terre Haute. I mean --

MATTHEWS: What's so hard about doing a diner? I don't get it. Why doesn't he go in there and say, "Did you see the papers today? What do you think about that team? How did we do last night?" Just some regular connection?

SHUSTER: Well, here's the other thing that we saw on the tape, Chris, is that, when Obama went in, he was offered coffee, and he said, "I'll have orange juice."

MATTHEWS: No.
