Anderson Cooper and Donna Brazile: Not a love connection

Sometimes 24-hour cable news chatter can get to the supreme level of awkward that it actually reverts back to charming. It doesn’t happen often, but sometimes when the decorum fades and the talking heads start acting like people it can become likable. (Note: This can never happen on FOX News. It’s just a fact.)

Case in point — a strange exchange between our beloved Anderson Cooper and Democratic strategist Donna Brazile where they discuss Hillary Clinton’s possibilities as a vice presidential candidate. Take a look:

This is a rather oddball exchange, especially if you believe what you hear about these two characters around the blogosphere.

One other aspect of this episode is CNN.com’s new and completely ridiculous feature where you can purchase t-shirts based on headlines. They used to have almost any random-ass headline for sale (plus, you could easily hack into the code and create your own shirt — a feature they’ve since caught on to), but now they’re only doing the silly human interest ones like “Lhasa apso moonlights as lounge singer” or “Six-year-old youngest superdelegate ever.” CNN apparently caught on to how precious this exchange was and made it a full-fledged story on their homepage. Here’s the corresponding shirt.
