Is Chris Matthews, officially, a tool? Despite that back room reports we’ve issued, we have a general liking for the fellow. But seeing him on last night’s show try to battle Howard Wolfson on including Puerto Rico’s Democratic delegates in Hillary Clinton’s delegate count, when the Democratic party has chosen to give the island a say in choosing the party’s nominee, doesn’t just strike us as overzealous Obamamania, but illegitimate logic. And people like that shouldn’t have a platform.

(If you listen carefully, Matthews crosses over from counting PR’s votes toward the popular vote to PR’s primary delegate votes, which decide whether she’ll be the party’s nominee. Whether he can’t follow his own train of thought, or forgot the difference between the two, is for you to judge.)
