Sure, bhelverson, and there are still plenty of daffy-dog Republicans and wingnuts talkers around who need to be housebroken, too. Things won’t get dull.

Oh, Bart will have plenty to do. The Blue Dog Democrats who voted with Little bush and President Cheney are still there. The Republican filibuster machine is still in place. Cowardly Harry Reid and Nency Pelosi are still running Congress. The Republican Judiciary is still there. There is a lot of treachery around to fight.

Obama will need someone to cover his back As we all know, Bart is the best guy to have in your foxhole.

Bob, after all the slop and sleaze Billo, Hannity and the other miscreants of the Right-Wing Noise Machine hurled at Obama, I think they’ve ‘jumped the shark.’ As Olbermann said the other night, they don’t matter anymore as the audience for their tripe shrinks — they are only preaching to the choir at this point and the choir is shrinking.

Karl Rove made an interesting comment recently about while the wingnuts dominate talk radio, the liberals own the Internet — and he said he’d rather have the Internet.

Even that’s changing, though, along with the presidency — lefties talkers such as Thom Hartmann regularly beat Rushbo and O’Reilly in many markets.

While they still have some influence on what stories the Big Media covers and how they cover them, their clout is shriveling and, once President Obama takes office, I don’t think they’ll be able to ‘take him down’ the way they tried to destroy Bill Clinton.

After all these years of lies and smears, they’ve just, in the words of Howard Beale, run out of bullshit.
