Oh, I <3 Kelly Ripa. 🙂
No, not drunk, Anderson. Just in need of a long weekend of sleep. Congrats on your victory! 😉
Hope all of you have an excellent weekend and that the CNN crew gets some rest!
LOL, we don't blame you for being tired, AC.
Erica- You always look so pretty!

Oh Anderson, thank you for making my Friday night at home sick enjoyable!
Okay it is definitely Friday at AC360, yaaaay Anderson for beating Kelly this time around! Jeez, I've not laughed that hard since the Blago conference...Have a good weekend everybody!
AC – There with you bud... Get some sleep...
You're just tired eh Anderson? Yeahh okkk : )
Goodnight!
I agree with Kelly Ripa.......there needs to be a DG360 Show (that would be David Gergen). Enjoy your Siesta, Anderson :o)

ya know anderson,
blagovijch don't get it, how or what do the people in illinose think.
he lost all respect. ( that thought should of never entered his head 'about the seat.
Good for Mrs. Obama. She has let it be known that her family is her priority. That is VERY refreshing in our society.
have a good evening everyone and Anderson get some sleep!
That week! Many events, emotion!
Anderson, good rest and wonderful weekend!
And prepare yourself for another week full of news, so I hope,
and fewer layoffs!
Bye!
congrats Anderson
you have redeemed yourself
good night everyone
Erica and Anderson you make me smile. Woof !!
Anderson, you are probably too young to remember Howdy Doody. Want a look-alike to Blagojevich and the hair style? Juxtapose him with Howdy. Or maybe Clarabell.
Night Gergen! : )
never let erica go please.......and the blago fun is too laughable
Good advice from Suze
This is so unfair. Anderson already said he was realy tired. Kelly has nothing to do with a husband and like ten kid and a morning show and showing up tonight too. It's not fair to Anderson!
Friday's shot? I guess Anderson must be a night owl. His brain worked better in the evening. Either that or he's a big wow of smarts on germs. Night all.
Good night and au revoir
That was great! I love Kelly, she's so inspiring.
Anderson - You make a good "straight man" opposite Kelly Rippa. Good show tonight.
Good night all - Enjoyed the blog tonight. Hope everyone has a good weekend and that the news is better on Monday. At least the Blago/IL Senate show will provide us with some entertainment.
It is better to have washed and flubbed than never to have washed at all.
Wow, Erica never lets you miss a beat..... Either giving you grief about not wearing a hat, or dancing, and now ..... your appearance on Kelly and Regis.
Rough week for you AC... Hang in there.. Ha Ha...
You guys crack me up.. Have a great weekend.
I love Kelly
Anderson wins so does he get to dance for us now? LOL
Here's one...studies show that the average office keyboard has more germs on it that the average public toilet seat. Gross, but it's true.
well we made it through another week any thing good happening me well other than gitting cold!!!say is it better to rent anymore than own a house ????
The family moving situation seems to have been ongoing. Longer than 3 weeks.... I'm still curious about the Reg/Kel episode. .. Ac , you know they love to have you because of hour naivate.
Looks like Blago is channeling a Gary Cooper western. Can't remember the name of the movie.
The snacking was classic! Anderson, you are a natural!!!
Sorry, by the time I wrote last, many more of you had written and I was unable to acknowledge you properly... thanks... and now back to that siesta...
Cooper, I think you did just fine. 🙂 You also have been to Israel and DC in the past month. Just blame the jetlag....
A lot of bloggers seem to be saying that Congress should just give obama everything he wants. I think the Founding Fathers had a more responsible attitute in mind when they made Congress co-equal to the Executive Branch. Haven't a lot of you complained that the Republican Congress giving Bush what he wanted that caused this? There have to be checks and balances, and contrary to many of your beliefs, Obama isn't right all the time.
Mr. Anderson,
That was brilliant writing tonight on your introduction to the story about the Cowboy Gov'ner! Extended metaphor! Hearkening back to the old movies. Oscar references. So cool. I was an English major. Great delivery, too, with the popcorn. 🙂 You make the day's news fun. Thanks for helping us see the humor and irony in some of the madness.
I loved your humor on the New Year's Eve show. You don't take yourself too seriously like some in TV news. Now I'm looking forward to your commentary on your Regis and Kelly appearance.
Kathy the English major in Knoxville...
TGIF Keep warm everyone. Love ya!
I just wanted to let David Gergan know how much people appreciate his thoughtful insights. He helps the average person understand the complex issues of our government and political system. He also shares the same calm demeanor of our new president.
Governent bailout should consider some type of mortgage forgiveness. An amount between $ 50,000 and $150,000; not to profit a dwelling home owner, but to forgive all or part on a primary home mortgage. After all - monthly cash stimulous(sp) will effect more people, and more than once!
Sarah Palin...........11 million for a book deal. Isn't that a bit much for a comic book?
Oh that is funny... Gergen can't pronounce it so he just calls him the idiot... That is classic. I can't spell it so that is why I just refer to him in the blog as Blago...
Popcorn Yum... Now I am hungry...
Suzie Good Evening
I am 57 and my is wife is 52.
Would you keep adding to your 401 k?
We both are working in great health and plan on keep working.
We live in Florida. Where staying in good health is easy.
Thank you
And have a safe weekend
Sad to see G-Rod losing it. He's now telling "Wild Wild West" stories to try to gain public support. Out of 12 million Illinoisans, a handful have any sympathy for this guy!
Posted by Kassie Wright ...."You know, I won’t even lie, I’d be interested in reading Palin’s memoirs, if for no other reason than to get her take on everything that has happened." Save yourself some money. Palin is on TV almost every week. Her book would be a re-run.
