Quote:Rush railroaded McCain as well.

But either way. Joe the Plumber and Sara Palin were and still are a joke. McCain got sucked into taking Palin on for VP. C'mon GOP....Sara Palin? That's the best you had ( have)?

Why shouldn't Smith stay at Fox. Don't like " Fair and Balanced"? Can't have all Hannitys on there pulling his hair out.

Want fair and balanced? The Daily Show. At least I can get a laugh.

 

I'm not familiar with how Rush railroaded McCain but I do know that Michael Savage caused considerable damage to the McCain-Palin ticket.   There was a time I respected Savage.  But the way he goes 180 degrees on subjects and back,  he can't be trusted.

 

I acknowledged that it was a mistake to put Sarah Palin on the ticket.

 

If Fox wants to keep Shep Smith,  that's their right.   I also have the right to find alternative news sources.  

 

If every other network was fair and balanced,   the presence of Smith and O' Reilly on Fox wouldn't be noticeable.   But with the vast majority of the media at the very least partially to the left,    my preference would be for Fox to be a true Conservative alternative.
