The number I saw for Limbaugh is about 14 million. Certainly
higher, but considering that he's the keystone of conservative

I agree that Franken is not so hot so far, but honestly to
me it sounds like he's just trying to imitate Limbaugh's
style. I gather that you are fairly conservative. I'm pretty
liberal - so to me most right wing radio sounds pretty
boring as well. Bush-bashing is certainly more entertaining
to me than Clinton or Rodham/Clinton-bashing.

At least the left wing commentators don't
harp on Richard Nixon the way right-wingers continue to
bring up his opposite number from the 60's - Jane Fonda.
One man's red meat is another's crapola, or whatever.


Nixon has been dead since 1994, and while he did some stupid things, he was never photographed at an anti aircraft gun with a bunch of friends who happened to be trying to kill members of our military, and he never held a press conference to say the folks
we were fighting were a swell bunch of guys.

When our POW's came back and said they'd been mistreated, she called them liars.

Ultimately, in 1988 she apologized, but many people had already made up their minds.
