MSNBC only hired David Axelrod to bring in the young female demo. #EyeCandy—

I'm sure that as an MSNBC analyst, David Axelrod will call them as he sees them and criticize Obama when he thinks he's wrong. Really.—

Wait, @DavidAxelrid is joining NBC?!?! Looks like @ChuckTodd is getting some competition! Better step up the Obama adoration game.—

Can @MMFA explain how David Axelrod joining NBC News isn't like Karl Rove being on Fox? Thanks in advance. #tcot #p2—

Right now, there are people at @MMFA going "Good! Axelrod will even out the right wing bias at NBC News!" #theyrethatdumb #tcot—
RB (@RBPundit) February 19, 2013
Media: hmm, what could we do to counter conservative accusations we're biased? I know! Hire David Axelrod as an analyst!—
John Hayward (@Doc_0) February 19, 2013
So now David Axelrod will be reading MSNBC editorials, instead of writing them.—
John Hayward (@Doc_0) February 19, 2013
.@jimgeraghty and I am CERTAIN Axelrod will call out left-wing pundits as “crazy, stupid, and dangerous” from time to time.—
