Matthews spouts "disdain" and "arrogance" that Romney would run against Obama

Today, Chris Matthews said that Romney's decision to run against Obama "showed a certain kind of disdain,”. While it is no secret that the entirety of media is so far up Obama's butt they will never again see the light of day, this is an incredible statement. The most disturbing part of the whole exchange is that I doubt it would matter who had run, this would still be Matthews position: that no matter who you are, you have no business running against such a great and wonderful leader. As far as Matthews is concerned Obama should be king.

“I thought the decision by Romney to run for president, even as this president had not yet even been inaugurated, Mayor, showed a certain kind of disdain,” said Matthews. “I don’t want to get into his head on this – I don’t like the look of it – but he seemed to think, ‘Well, this guy could be beat by me.’”
Matthews said that Romney’s suspicion that he could defeat President Obama in 2012, even though he knew that he was not “a first-rate politician,” was an “arrogant point of view.”
“I’ve got a message for Mitt Romney – I wouldn’t do any head games with Barack Obama,” said former San Francisco Mayor Willy Brown. “He’s not smart enough, I don’t think he’s clever enough and he clearly has no street about him at all.”

Yeah, 'cause Obama is sooo street. Give me a break.......
