Ask a stupid question

Chuck Todd gets an honorable mention for worst question. The worst thing about Todd's question, it seems to me, wasn't its incoherence, but was rather that insofar as there was a coherent thought there, Todd was trying to toss a softball, but screwed it up so badly that he utterly failed to earn any ass kissing credits whatsoever.

Nobody, though, could live down to the standard set by Jennifer Loven. Recently private corporations have done bad things in the area of finance, Mr. President. How, then, do you justify seeking more power for government in the area of finance?

What?
