Remember when Rachael first went on air? The noisy, chaos
in the background? Some of us wondered if she'd make it. Did you watch her show tonight? An absolute delight, masterful. She ran through the litany of Republican hyprocrasy with bullet-like prescision. She has the facts, she's done the research and the hard work. She just makes me want to stand up and cheer. She puts the rest of the MSM, even our own, to shame. And she's goddamned funny and entertaining to boot. Got to love this woman!

1. I love Rachel's interview prep.
Every interview I have ever seen of her she comes prepared, very prepared, with facts. I'll never forget the interview on MTP (I think) with Dick Armey. She took him apart with facts and you could see the disgust on his face. It was great.

9. for msm she does really well
If you want to get some good interviews, check out "This is Hell" http://thisishell.net/ or "Background Briefing". No commercial breaks and no acceptance of the story sold by the powerful.

4. She mows down Repub logic like wind over a wheatfield
The minute she's off they spring right back up.

5. No question, she was great tonight
But as far as I'm concerned, she's great every night.

10. Her show has become the only show that I make sure I watch.
Love Keith, but Rachael just lays it down so sweet and easy it's like watching a Master at work.

I love her program and I value her opinion.

12. She's got a lot on the ball,
but other liberal voices in the public arena speak as well of our position on the issues of the moment. It kind of depends on what your looking for, Thom Hartmann is always educational for me. If I'm really frustrated and need to vent, I can finish the day with master blaster Mike Malloy. For the intricacies of legislative procedure, Randi Rhodes can lay out what cumbersome steps need to be or can be taken. Big Eddie is like Front Street, push it out there and pick it apart. There are many others, Bill Press, Stephanie Miller, Nicole Sandler and of course the KO.

The voice I think about lately is because I miss hearing him, Mr. Reagan, if you're out there, tell me KPOJ is doing something to bring you back, the sooner the better. Nor Man Goldman is a great guy and all, but the flavor of your way suited me too well I guess.

That's a kick for a capable, charismatic collective of compelling communicators, tyvm
