“Straight Talk. Progress for the People.” That’s the tagline on Dylan Ratigan’s home page, below the words “Dylan Ratigan for Congress.” In the latest case of TV-meets-real world politics, the former MSNBC anchor has launched a bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. He is running as a Democrat against Gop incumbent Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st congressional district, in the northern part of the state.

When Dylan Ratigan left MSNBC last year, he likely didn't know what he would be doing next. But less than a year later, he has left the news business altogether to work on a hydroponic organic farm.

While visiting 30 Rock this week, I had the chance to sit down with the hosts of The Cycle, the commentary fondue pot that replaced Martin Bashir at 3 pm when Bashir moved into Dylan Ratigan‘s vacated time slot. While discussing the state of post-truth politics, co-host Krystal Ball offered that often, the voters get it right with instinctive criteria like the "beer test," and when I tried to refute that using the words "George W. Bush," Touré explained that relating to the common man was part of Bush's political genius.

MSNBC has solidified the network’s replacement for the departing Dylan Ratigan show. The Cycle, which debuts Monday, features a permanent cast of four: Conservative commentator S.E. Cupp, author and pundit Touré, Salon writer Steve Kornacki and former congressional candidate Krystal Ball. All four will appear every day, taking turns facilitating discussion. MSNBC revealed specifics on the show to the Huffington Post. Exec producer Steve Friedman and the four co-hosts jokingly begged to differ with suggestions that The Cycle format seems derivative of Fox News Channel’s The Five. “The concept of an ensemble show is extraordinarily old,” said Touré. The intent for The Cycle is that it come across as something like a dinner party with freewheeling conversations about the news — but never degenerating into partisan brawling.

Ratigan visited the protests in lower Manhattan on Friday, Saturday and Sunday to get a closer look at the demonstrators and what it is that "the 99 percent" is trying to accomplish. "I love what you're doing!" he told several of those gathered, before sharing that he himself is attempting to start a debate about the "unholy alliance" between business and state. "And so my argument to you guys," he continued, offering his own possible solution, "is that we have an opportunity to convert the energy that you've already harnessed into a channel, a flow of energy into next year where we can push collectively for a constitutional amendment to get the money out."...

Dylan Ratigan is mad as hell and he isn't going to take it anymore. While hosting a discussion on the seemingly endemic problems that the U.S. political process is enduring -- specifically how it relates to responsibly fiscal policy -- the MSNBC host blew a gasket over what he sees as the real mathematical problem at play. The impassioned diatribe was delivered in the context of the recent credit downgrade and market volatility, and Ratigan placed equal blame on both Republicans and Democrats.

Ratigan pointed out that the attacks on the United States, from the USS Cole to the two World Trade Center attacks, were the work of a single extremist sect of Islam.

I've decided to roll right on with the teenager/high school theme because it gives me something to write about and it's a universal experience so it's probably more entertaining for you to read than, say, a rant about tuna fish cans and how no matter how careful you are you always get a little bit of the water on your shirt and it's infuriating. Also, there's almost always at least one TV show on that's set in high school so it's totally relevant. Anyway, if you could go back in time and spend exactly one minute with your teenage self the day you started high school (or whatever it's equivalent was for you) what would you say? Would you warn them away from certain people, fashion choices, perms, etc. or try to impart a deeper life lesson? Is there anything you'd like to change about your high school experience...

This meant no votes were collected for the cast of The Daily Show, Colbert Report and Fox and Friends. You think Steve Doocey is sober? Hard to think that any of those folks have eyes that aren’t pied 24-7.

It's been barely 24 hours since Larry King announced the end of his 25 year old CNN show on Twitter (Larry King tweets?!), then on his show. 'Larry King Live' will end in September, and perhaps not a moment too soon.
So let the guessing begin: who will assume Larry's suspenders? Piers Morgan? Ryan Seacrest? We humbly ask CNN not to rush into anything and consider our choices for their coveted prime time slot.
John Edwards. With CNN's recent hire of Eliot Spitzer, disgrace is hot! Spitzer was actually quite good backing up Dylan Ratigan on MSNBC, and Edwards is even smoother (perhaps too smooth). Years of campaigning -- not to mention his background as a trial lawyer - would seem to make asking the tough questions and offering analysis just about second nature to the former Vice Presidential candidate. And hey, where is Edwards anyway?
