I agree with Mike that Colmes doesn't get as much credit as he deserves. The Hannity show on FoxNews would only allow a soft spoken liberal who would not overshadow their "star" (if you could call Hannity a star) - and one can put money on that. If Colmes gets too vocal you can bet he'd be outta there. My feeling is that the guy is trying to do the right thing with a huge choke collar around his neck - it should be obvious to any thinking person what his diminished role is at FoxNews. There are times I wish he'd walk away from them but I also thinks he gets good points in as well. The problem is, does anyone watching from the rightwing world even entertain opposing commentary? If they watch FoxNews and especially Hannity, I doubt it.

The best example I know of recently was his 'exclusive' talk with Katherine Harris when she announced she will spend her inheritance on her senate campaign.
