Joe Scarborough: Fox News’ Chris Wallace Loathes Mitt Romney

video
» 30 comments

On Thursday’s Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough warned Mitt Romney that he was heading into the lion’s den when he sits down for an interview with Fox News host Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday December 18. “Chris Wallace has never made a secret of the fact that he loathes Mitt Romney — has never liked him,” Scarborough revealed. “Anybody that knows Chris Wallace at Fox has said the same thing. Chris Wallace, of course, will deny it, and then throw an insult around because that’s what he’s done in the past.”

Wallace mentioned in late October that Romney had not sat down with him for an interview in months.

“We have now interviewed all the major Republican candidates in our 2012 ‘One on One’ series — except Mitt Romney,” Wallace noted, guilt-tripping the former Massachusetts Governor.

The interview will be Romney’s first Sunday talk show interview since March of 2010, The New York Times notes.

    TV Gossip Wrapup:

    Mark Halperin thinks Morning Joe is a fink.

    Mika B. believes Barnicle is a schlemiel.

    Donny Deutsch is sure that MSNBC is plotting against him and stole the sandwich his mama packed in his lunchbox just for him.

    Al Sharpton is planning to skip the sockhop in the NBC gym because Seacrest is taking Lauer’s job, and the Rev. wants it.

    All the cool kids are going to the malt shop and no one is inviting bigmouth Ed Schultz.

    Joe is making a perfectly sound point and Mika just stares at him like he’s a dummy…I get Joe never shuts up, but either she has nothing to say to replace his ranting or she doesn’t have the charisma to  stand up to him and make her point. Either way, she belongs back at her old job as a 3 AM news anchor; all she can do is read off a prompter.

    The bit about Donny Deutsch was brilliant. It seems we share a hatred for Ed Schultz, the Glenn Beck of the left.

    Leftist media HACKS only know one speed: HATRED. From Pauline Krugman to ‘Fat Boy’ Edward Schultz to Greaseball Maher…it’s hysterical that a Leftist Media HACK would bring up the word ‘loathing.’

    We are amused.

  • Henry Wood

    That’s quite a bit of seething hate right there. 

    Only in Teabagistan could former republiklan congressman Joe Scarborough be described as a “leftist.”

    Does anyone really think that Wallace confided in MSNBC Joe that he hates Romney?  Joe reminds me of the stupid kid who spouts nonsense masked as gossip in order to look smart.  Joe, your days as a GOPer are long gone.  You couldn’t get elected anywhere in this country as a repub.  MSNBC has something in the water where everyone associated with the third rate cable network becomes a left wing hack.  Joe, please shut up.  Nobody is listening except for Mediaite.

    A year ago Chris Wallace said that Joe Scarborough ‘lives where the trolleys don’t run at night’ and that he is offended that people watch Joe on MSNBC.  Joe sure does know how to carry a grudge.

    Everyone knows Wallace has a hard time getting relevant guests to appear on his Sunday show, this is why Michele Bachamnn has appeared so many times!!

    I think this Sunday, Wallace will be interviewing the Kardashians!! Lol!!

    truly you jest.  Lee, you can do better than that.   Everyone doesn’t know, because you made it up to suit the need to post.  

    Honestly, no wonder you have no credibility.  When you make up jibberish to further your silly claim, all it really is, is sour grapes.  Add some cheese with your whine.

    Joe’s a pretty smart guy. Arrogant, but smart as far as DC as concerned.

    With Scarborough and Wallace we have two rather petty, egoistic, unlikable sorts. However, they are both men of some talent, an ability to draw in and draw from people of thought and influence. But, they use this talent differently. Scarborough could, I imagine, find a home at any network, broadcast or cable. That’s because he’s also a man of ideas. Wallace, by contrast, needs sheeple to succeed. He has nor ideas, no core. I’d be very much surprised if any network other than FOX “News” would be interested in him.

    Seeing as you’re too airheaded to know, it was the Democrats who had the support of the Klan, and Robert Sheets Bird, one of the longest serving Senators, was also a Democrat and Former Klansman. Don’t give me this “republiklan” bs.

    Perfectly good point? Without any supporting evidence. Joe is a blowhard.

    Scarborough couldn’t carry Wallace’s jock strap.

    Joe has a good point about the ’08 democratic primaries and that in hindsight Hillary would have been the better choice

    One hopes Romney avoids the thin-skinned defensive stature he had in the Bret Baer interview

    A Romney nomination will be a good chance to compare flip flops versus flip flops, the president’s eclipsing those of Romney’s by all measures

    And everybody knows that Mika is a dumb Polack, Danny is an uberman deutsch and Al Sharpton is a politically correct, affirmative action promoted loud mouth.

    Who does the Klan support TODAY?  Certainly not the party that has Barack Obama leading it.

    People who voted for 0bama, thinking that their rent, car payment, groceries, kids’s education, filling their gas tanks and paying their mortgages will be paid from ’0bama’s Stash’ will vote for this Chicago fraud and thug, regardless. Lack of brains and fear of union thugs does funny things to you.

    And you thought Romney was an American patriot? Yikes!

    I agree that Hilary Clinton would have been the better choice over Obama, and right now the only choice for me is Ron Paul, he is the last consistent politician we have. He has not flip flopped like every other candidate has, he stays true to what he believes, does not play to the crowd he is in front of and his ideas and reasons for why things happen make perfect sense, but yet the media and every show on these networks just talk about Romney and Gingrich.

    In his wildest dreams Ed could not ever be anywhere near as successful, smart, rich and entertaining as Glenn Beck.

    Shatwood, we ALL know about BYRD, and the KLAN and STROM THURMOND and his AFRICAN/AMERICAN daughter.  SO WHAT!
    You need to join us in the 21st Century and realize that the RACISTS have integrated themselves thoroughly into the G.O.P., all because OBAMA was elected President, much to their “Chagrin”.

  • Anonymous

    I wonder who you are talking about.  Can’t be just Blacks and Latinos, whom I suspect you are alluding to!  And I bet you are not even in the 0NE-PERCENT.  Remember, Obama was elected by the MAJORITY of VOTERS, so that put you on the LOSING end!

    So, I guess you would dismiss all allegations and facts that may be damaging to Newt Gingrich that happened in the 1990′s.

    I don’t think they are going to call you a RACIST!  I think they will just determine that you are a MIS-GUIDED Tea – Bagger
    and L.O.L.
