The growing buzz is the MSNBC host wants to run for the U.S. Senate in 2010 as a Democrat. The Daily Howler is amazed the idea is even discussed:

No one on cable devoted more effort to the wars against both Clintons and Gore-the wars which sent George Bush to the White House, the wars which produced the war in Iraq.
