If MSNBC journalists last week saw “bloodthirsty” Republican delegates ready to “kill” at the GOP convention, they imagine nothing but love at Hillary Clinton’s crowning. Rachel Maddow on Tuesday hailed the roll call vote as the “best TV in years.” A hyperbolic Chris Matthews blurbed, “Move over, Hitchcock.”

Maddow found the states casting their ballots to be too much. Interrupting Brian Williams discussing Congressman Elijah Cummings, she raved, “Let's go to him! Let's go to him! This is the best television I've seen in years! I'm having such a good time!”

Later, after Clinton went over the top, an excited, smiling Matthews stated the obvious: “The nominee's going to be Hillary Clinton as of just now, and that's the big news of this country. Around the world, around the world, the headlines are now going to be Hillary Clinton is the nominee.”

Later, movie fan Matthews gave a recounting of the second-by-second whereabouts of Bernie Sanders: “Move over, Alfred Hitchcock. The new master of suspense is Senator Bernie Sanders because he was letting everybody wait, the people in his corner, the people in the main, larger group, the Hillary people, will he or will he not make this by acclimation?”

On Monday, despite the booing of Clinton by Sanders fans and the chaos, the Hardball host insisted day one was a “sluggers row of wonderful sentiment!” Matthews declared Clinton’s speech on Thursday will be “magic.”

In contrast, in addition to the “bloodthirsty” GOP delegates, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes blamed the anti-Clinton tone on “invective” and “misogyny.”
