4. Even within progressive radio
Lots of progressives don't like Al Franken's style - or Ed Schultz's - but go crazy over Randi.

Al is definitely a calm, cool, humorous type; and Ed is just a mid-western, tail gate party, jock, to too many progressives.

(I prefer Al Franken and "Will and Willie" and Jon Rothmann -- and even though Ed is younger then me, he reminds me of my Dad's cronies and my Uncle Frank).
