14. And they will carry Randi real time!!!!!!!

I just barely get it at home, but it's stronger in the car, which is where I really need it.

I need to call them and thank them alot!!!

4. I think it might fail for a variety of reasons, but

the biggest one is probably this:

Talk radio junkies are typically folks who don't have much going on inside their heads when not being exposed to constant external jabbering, and thus have plenty of room and tolerance for said jabbering. People who generally find talk radio abrasive or annoying except in small doses are those who already have a good deal of activity going on upstairs and don't need to constantly add to it from the outside. Conservatives generally fall into the former empty-headed category, while liberals fall into the later, thoughtful category.

Just a little homespun theory based on observation and personal experience.

6. now we just need friggin Hartford!

I spit farther than the range of the station they just added in New Haven (with Ed Schultz following Franken)

On the bright side, last night, I to run down to the New Haven area to pick up an XMas gift for my wife (last one in stock...) and I was able to hear three, count 'em three, liberal talk radio shows: Randi Rhodes on WLIB out of NYC... Schultz on 1300 WAVZ out of New Haven... and Colin McEnroe on 50,000 Watt flamethrower WTIC 1080 in Hartford.

7. They really need to move into markets

in the heart of the red states where small radio stations ONLY have Rush, Hannity, O'Reilly, and the rest of the facist radio network on 24 hrs. a day. It's one of the reason some of those "red states" are so ignorant.

9. As someone from Nebraska

I completely agree with you.

[tmooses]

8. That's 3 stations in Oregon

[left is right]

12. Oregon should not get another AAR station

until after the Louisville, Ky market gets one. It aint fair, and mom always did like you best

[tridim]

10. Looking at those red/blue population adjusted maps

It's obvious that AAR would do well in practically every big city in America. Tap into those veins AAR.

11. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! You made my heart lurch.

But it's much better now.

:hi:

[tech3149]

13. Yea

You know your failing when you only grow one or two percent A WEEK! How many years did it take for the Oxy cowboy to build his distribution?

[MikeG]

15. No one goes to that restaurant because its always crowded.

[Politicub]

16. Kick!

AAR rocks!

:kick:

[tedoll78]

17. Excellent.

I've noticed that they're spreading the boradcasts first to Swing States and states that Lean Blue. I am quite pleased with this. And with the high ratings that AAR has been getting! :party:

If I ran the world, the next broadcast sites would be in Ohio, Arkansas, Missouri, Florida, West Virginia, Virginia, and Iowa! Happy happy, joy joy!

[Cozmosis]

18. Keep on growing, baby!

Can't be long until 100 :)
