VIDEO: WHY MADDOW DOESN'T TAKE OPPOSING GUESTS

Awesome. The best part comes in the last three minutes but don't fast forward because from the beginning until that point, you get to watch what causes Maddow to unmask her true self - specifically, she's losing the debate.

Tim Phillips of Americans for Prosperity does more than hold his own. He comes across as the one in the interview clearly most comfortable within his own skin. It becomes quickly apparent that Maddow was attempting to disparage Phillips and get a rise out of him as a result. Instead, Phillips' heart rate didn't seem to go above 70 bpm.

Conversely, Maddow's anger rose as a result. Also note who hurls the insults (hint: Maddow). Watch the video to see why MSNBC hosts so infrequently have guests with opposing viewpoints on their programs. I can only imagine how Keith Olbermann would have responded to Phillips' calm demeanor.

geesh.
