Duberstein's trenchant analysis
Ken Duberstein, who was once Ronald Reagan's White House Chief of Staff and now finds work as an advisor to Republicans and as a journeyman right-wing hatchetman on the talking-head shows, is described in his online bio as enjoying "bi-partisan demand for his insightful and honest appraisal of the political realities currently facing America."

MATTHEWS: Sounds to me like he‘s always on the liberal side.
DUBERSTEIN: And guess what? He‘s also nuanced, which is a French word!
