Poll question: Favorite Air America show?
What is your favorite Air America show on the air. Being that I am only really able to listen from 10 to 6 or so, I have to say Randi Rhodes. I am from West Palm Beach so she is my hometown girl :). O'Franken is pretty good but I still don't think they've gotten all the wrinkles ironed out. I t seems to hit a snag every once in awhile but I love the show nonetheless.

4. Amen.
Give Malloy the late evening slot on AAR and AAR would be an assured success!

Malloy+Randi = unbeatable.

BTW, Who is this Franken dude?

6. If Malloy was on AAR he would be my favorite
It's a shame

3. At first I didn't like Randi Rhodes.
Shes so abrasive at times and seems to support theories that I'm not entirely sure are true, like MIHOP. But the more I listen to her, the more she changes my mind. She has a sharp mind, a huge reservoir of information, and she can argue very successfully. It's my favorite show now, edging out Franken.

5. I'm a little disappointed with Franken
But it's getting better. The Majority Report and Randi Rhodes kick major ass and more than make up for some of Franken's show's lameness. I can't comment on the others, I never seem to catch them.

9. Add another to the O'Franken dissapointment list
He's too nice, we need an angry liberal on the radio. Randi Rhodes is my favorite.

10. I disagree...
If Air America were wall-to-wall ranting and raving, it would be easy for conservatives and independents to dismiss it. Franken is the "marquee" of the network because he's the most recognizable; for a lot of curious-but-uninformed listeners, his will be the first show they hear.

That being said, I voted for Randi Rhodes because I worship her like a pagan goddess...

14. I don't know, I expect Franken to be a bit light..
..and subtle. He can be effective that way. That show title makes me get a kick out of him whenever he's serious, in fact. :-)
