Randi Rhodes on Air America NOW?!
Didn't hear her yesterday, so is this a replay of the Nader interview?

2. She doesn't sound as vicious to Nader as I was led to believe!
Besides, she's got truth on her side, too. She's got cojones. In fact these AA gals all have 'em, don't they? Liberal gals are so sexy (aren't we?)!

3. 1st time I've heard her...
She is great! Just what liberal radio needs: a personality that can attract ratings!

4. Ya know, I'm really warming up to her style...
...yesterday I wasn't too keen on Randi. Go sock it to 'em, Randi!

I love the snarky reference to renaming Reagan National (I still call it just 'National'!) for the most violent one.

"Randi, shut up and love the plastic (turkey)!"

applause :kick:

5. Randi could go head to head with the Pigman.
She's got the power.

7. Randi is awesome
I've been listening to her for a while on radiopower.org. She is awesome. They need to get Mike MAlloy, too, but at least they have Randi to be a bit more aggressive and edgy than the Franken show (at least the first two).

Taking on Nader the way she did was really incredible. The one thing she didn't bring up when callers brought up third parties in other countries is our winner-take-all system and how that differs from proportional representation or instant runoffs. I think she might have made her point better by bringing up that Nader is not so stupid that he doesn't realize we are forced into a 2 party system until we fix it. Overall, though, it was great to hear the Democratic anger at Nader presented so frankly.

9. i agree!
i think i'm in love. yesterday was my first time ever listening to her, but she has an edgy, take no prisoners kinda thing going, and i'm lovin' it. i also agree with others that franken has gotta get better, and maybe dump his "sidekick", or at least have a good long talk with her. It is so irritating to have her constantly interrupt articulate callers in the middle of making responsible & valid arguments. If they don't have time to take calls, then don't!
