While Colmes is certainly intelligent and articulate, I think that his style is too tentative for radio. One of the things that I like about him is that he adds some nuance to his opinions. Sometimes this comes across as apologetic. Not good radio. There is nothing nuanced about Rush's opinions (one of the reasons I don't listen to him).

As I remember the early days (and my memory could be deficient) of Hannity and Colmes, Colmes was the dominant participant. I used to feel sorry for Hannity. When I tune in now, Hannity is generally using Colmes as a punching bag. It is almost too painful to watch sometimes.

Katie does not bother me because I never tune in. <gg>

Clark's comments were quoted in some articles yesterday. Very shrill. Dean is driving them all to the left. There were some interesting poll results from CNN yesterday:

It also showed that the Democratic mood may be swinging to the left, with 39 percent of registered Democrats now saying they would prefer a liberal nominee. Back in August, just 27 percent wanted a liberal standard-bearer to face President Bush next November.

Support for a moderate nominee rather than a liberal among Democrats is down to 53 percent, compared to more than two-thirds in August.
