Great caller on Springer
A little weak on presentation but very astute.

2. WOW! Thanks for all the information!
And thanks for going into such great detail about why the call was so great. :sarcasm:

6. By the time I was able to type it
The call would have been over. Sorry.
Basically she said she was an evangelical Christian Democrat living in a very red part of the Dallas area. She pointed out that the evangelicals believe that this pope will help the antiChrist.
She made some points that Christians were having abortions, and some of these Christians were Republicans. Went on to talk about basically how their actions and their rhetoric did not gel.
Sorry I just wanted to get this out there so those that had an opportunity to tune it on could hear her.

7. How's Jerry doing?
I can't get him in my office now. I listened to him a bit when he first started out on the Cincinnati station but haven't heard him since he went national. In general, I thought his content was great. He was just a little awkward on transitioning to callers, etc., bit I figured he'd pick that up with time.

8. To be honest I think he is the smartest host we have but his
delivery is as you say awkward from time to time. I think he is doing great and he always has interesting controversial but important topics which should cause more people to tune in. He handles people who disagree with him better than ANY host I know of. His experience being a Mayor gives him a real understanding of how things REALLY work in running efficient government.

10. Thanks for the update
I've tried streaming him on my computer to no avail. I'll have to tune in covertly sometime to see how he's coming along. I think most of that awkwardness will fade once it becomes second nature to him.
