Reply #43: It would be nice if there were eventually a second, "stealth" Air America

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

channel. Designed specifically to draw in "on the fence" RWers who haven't drunk lethal amounts of koolaid yet. No strident hosts like Malloy/Seder/Randi. Similar arguments but presented in a more Springeresque tenor. Designed to draw in people sick of all the shouting and hatemongering in RW media, to listen a bit and start to think differently.

Right now, I think it's GREAT to have Air America in the Repub stronghold where I live. But I doubt the many shrub-bots I know would EVER listen to more than a minute of AAR, realize what they are hearing, and change the channel in shock.

With Ed Shultz it might be a double shock, because at first listen, he kind of sounds like the typical blustery overweight white guy RW radio host (our AAR station has him in the early afternoon).
