Appearing on Tuesday's The Ed Show, MSNBC political analyst Jonathan Alter urged both liberals – euphemistically calling them “progressives” – and non-liberals to support President Obama's economic plan and advised Obama to “fight, fight, fight,” and argue that Republican opposition would mean they are “standing in the way of you getting a job.” After host Ed Schultz asked Alter about the GOP response to Obama's plan, the MSNBC analyst soon appealed to Americans to support the bill: And that's why it's so important that people respond in support of this bill. Obama has thrown down the gauntlet.
