Americans pining for a Romney presidency need look no further than the jobs numbers out of Illinois and Wisconsin for a glimpse into the future.
What will Mitt Romney do for America by following the playbook of his hero, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker? Ed welcomes Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn for reaction.
Republicans have a plan to keep student loan interest rates low. You won't believe what they're doing to pay for it. Rep. George Miller (D-CA) will join Ed for that.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is singing the praises of a bill to save the Postal Service, but they still have a lot of work to do. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) will fill us in.
Mitt Romney still hasn't closed the deal with conservatives. And their top choice for VP could really use one of President Obama's teleprompters! Howard Fineman, NBC News Political Analyst and Editorial Director of the Huffington Post Media Group, sounds off.
The right-wing freaks out over the president’s appearance on Jimmy Fallon's late night show. Ed sets the curvy couch straight tonight.
President Obama drops by Jimmy Fallon's show at UNC-Chapel Hill Tuesday to slow jam news about Stafford student loans. And in other water cooler news, a woman gets so excited when she meets President Obama, she accidentally spills yogurt on him.
And in the Big Finish, Sean Hannity is bent out of shape because Ed proved how out of touch he is. There’s more where that came from with Jonathan Alter, MSNBC Political Analyst and Bloomberg View Columnist.
It's going to be yet another packed @EdShow at 8pET on @msnbctv.

the repubs are jealous of the "POTUS with the mostest".
Loved it last night...
Rock on Obama!!!!!!
Obama --tax, spend , blame and party----- Mexican president Calderon says their economy is growing --, has 4% GDP growth --, so what's your excuse Obama!!!
John Boehner, and Boehner do nothing Congress, and Mitchell McConnell and his GOP Senators, who from day one of President Obama presidency plan to sabotage, to obstruct, to do nothing, and they did nothing. Now they blame President Obama. Excuse me but if President Obama could pass bills by his self, the economy would be stronger. But it takes Congress, and maybe the difference from Mexico and here is the politicians in Mexico put their country ahead of their party. What have Boehner and McConnell did to make the economy better? Show me one darn thing they did for the middle class, where were their job bills? All I can remember from the Boehner's House is their anti-women policies and their protecting the rich. Things that the GOP used to support, they change and voted against it just because President Obama now supported it. It was an agenda to put the Republican party ahead of the struggling country and it's struggling people. And G.W. Bush had to spend,because Bill Clinton left a surplus to Bush, and what was it Bush left for Obama? Let's not get into the unpaid Bush tax cuts for the rich. President Obama has cut taxes for the middle class.
His issue is the Republican a**holes in Congress who would rather play politics than do what's best for this country and its citizens. The GOP has been peddling their fear-based economic policies for over 30 years. IT IS NOT IN YOUR BEST INTEREST UNLESS YOU HAVE AS MUCH MONEY AS MITTENS. Only an uneducated fool would vote against what would make life better for themselves and their community.
LOL
that's some funny stuff
yES
98%
wonder why the unions are having trouble paying all those pentions and need big taxpayer money every 2 yrs?wise up/ dems and repubs are both un trustworty and will say what ever they think anybody wants to hear anytme it lines their pockets/ politians are mostly greedy people* much like drug dealers / want all they can grab*
Love Obama, He's the POTUS with the mostest
I don't see any logic in the whole student loan issue...The Federal Reserve gives enormous amount of money to the banks at almost zero percent rate and they can not find money to give students at 3.4 %. Where is the logic? Anybody?
How can zero be better than 3.4? How the best investment the country can make (student’s education) doesn’t have priority over everything else? Is there any better return on the investment than what the government collects in taxes from every well educated individual? This is so ridiculous!
What a joke this is turning out to be. He wants to give the Brotherhood 1.5 billion of our tax dollars to the brotherhood while we have people go hungry right here in the states. It looks like he cares more about them then his own people. Another wise decision.
That's "Decimates" not "disseminates", and "Proposed" not "Purposed". Contacts Ed, Contacts...or a larger TelePrompter.
Jroiz, looking for logic could be hazardous to your mental health.This is the country that stands for peace by remaining at war almost constantly for the past century. Since Reagan, govt has redistributed several trillion taxpayer dollars to the rich/corporations, always "for job creation," much of which they've used to build factories in foreign countries, exporting hundreds of thousands of our jobs -- so in response to our economic crisis, we give corporations more money and increase the number of people desperate for jobs by wiping out poverty relief. Of course, we ended poverty by ending aid to the poor, improved education by slashing it, and proved our dedication to freedom by building a prison system that makes the old Soviet gulag look puny in comparison. We protect our rights by ending them, and stand for the Constitution by ignoring it. Up is down, hot is cold, the rich suffer deprivation while the poor live in lazy luxury, and above all, war is peace. Logic? That's sooo yesterday.
Someone please remind that FOX Grecthen Carlson woman that why she is claiming to be so upset about President Obama appeared on the Jimmy Fallon's show. That Republican President Richard Nixon went on a comedy show call "Sock It To Me". And G.W. was on comedy shows too. Mostly likely she knew that, but she had to sit up there with her fake, phony, lying self. Just to try to put down President Obama.
You don,t have to try to put down our President,he does a good job by himself. The name of the show was Laugh In and was as un presidential as Obama being on Fallons show. The live audience @ Chapel Hill was half of what is was in2008.
LOL,, President Obama great job.
only haft are you sure?
LOL which is 10 times more the Robme could get in a football arena.
Loses respect in US by this stunt...he already is recognized as a dufus by the rest of the world....look at this recent quote from a European newspaper which basically applies to all who watch the Ed Show...
"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool.
It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."
LOL thanks for the good laugh this morning.
Obama can't help that he more popular than Mitt. Obama didn't insult a hostess for bringing cookies to his little picnic calling them 7-11 cookies although they were baked by a local baker.
o yes / obama is god/ let us all gather and kiss the ground*
rufus-6-rufus-Europe is to busy with why the austrity measures they implemented is hurting their country. Double dip recession and rising unemployment is hard to sell to its citizenry.
Cantor,Frank Luntz,Newt, and republicans meet on inaugration day to discuss how to make Obama a one term president. Unfortunately they didn't meet to govern its been "no" on every issue except abortion or contraseption. The only fire wall against their policies has been the Senate.
obama is god / let us gather at his feet*oh yea/ he is also cool* he is so honest too. i seen him walk on water in my dream / t w i c e *
so.... how are all my socialist people doing tonite? got enough free stuff today ?
hip hop & gangster rap is a wonderful warm loving example for young people * it teaches young people how to be responsible ,caring & respectful to women and all people / yes ... you rap people are all so wonderful and all of america needs the example you all set for this country*if only the whole world could be one big rap song this would be a great big wonderful world and a safe and morale place to raise all our children/ or maybe we could all call our children dogs instead*i think everyone should have new style pants with belt buckles and snaps built in to kneepads on our pants ,so then our children can learn early how to dress and be so cool like those so cool sagging pants*yes we are all so lucky to experiance the warm freindly safe loving parent example setting folks*
i ate some chocalte cake today / does that make me a racist ? or just a chocalte lover ? or ... is it illegal to even ask this question?
lawerence o;donell is self proclaimed soicalist/ msnbc pays him* wonder how many socialist they pay alltogetheir?
obama is so full of lies even he is starting to believe his own rhetoric, I hope that obama and his coharts keep it up because it will mean doomsday for them an thank god, What we need is a president who will speak the truth and try to unite the masses instead of this class warfare that they are using because they can not run on achievments because this administration has been a total failure and they know it, we know it.
If oduma would have concentrated on improving the economy instead of in acting his own agenda he would have been better off, but he won't because is inbeded with the far left crasies who want the welfare state to dominate.
the ed show is about the scummiest program on any T V this antiamerican @!$%# should be sent to Afghanistan and let loose in phyla where he can preach his anti Americanism to the taliban and let them control his fate
LOL
thanks for the really great laugh this morning.
but scummiest, that is the funny's part as that will or should cost you a suspension at minimum.
but then that will give you some time to maybe check out reality here on planet earth in the country of America. or maybe your tin foil hat needs to be send back in for adjustments.
but anyways thanks for the laugh.
