Are most of the liberal talking heads leaning toward Obama?
Of the folks I am listening to on the radio, it appears they are all leaning toward Obama. Correct me if I'm wrong, please, and let me know who you are listening to and which candidate they appear to be supporting.

Ed Schultz and Randi Rhodes seem to be leaning toward Obama based on listening to them over the last few days. Also, Cenk Ugyur of the Young Turks says he's leaning toward Obama.



Anyone else notice this or have info of which way our liberal media radio hosts are leaning? :shrug:

2. It is hard to understand Rhodes, Maddow, Schultz, and Maddow
because all of them have their heads up Obama's ass!

5. Schulz was ranting about the David Schuster thing today
very angry, it appeared -- only caught a few minutes of him today, but said Schuster's a friend and all. He seems generally down on Clinton these days.

9. LOL
C'mon AX10, you know you want to stick your head up Obama's ass too. You'll be surprised how cozy it is. Unsurprisingly, even his shit don't stink.

6. Those talking heads are not liberals.
They are talking heads with an agenda - more listeners.

7. So we're down on all of them now?
I never know who's in or out of favor from day to day. ;)

8. Hartmann has played it pretty straight down the middle
I think he's said that he leans VERY slightly to Obama, but still doesn't know who he'd vote for.

10. I never get to catch Hartmann live, so I had no idea which way he's leaning
Thanks for the update.

14. It's hard to stay awake long enough during his show to find out.
There could be more to the story...

11. Leaning---More like advocates for Obama Campaign.
The last 2 days they are trying not to be so obviously pro Obama.

13. It's only been in the last few days that I noticed Schulz and Randi
seeming to lean toward Obama -- or, at least being critical of Clinton. Neither have stated they are endorsing Obama outright, that I've heard -- maybe others have heard otherwise. Up to this point, neither seemed to be taking sides.

12. The people I have seen and heard think the momentum Obama
has favors him, but when you actually run the math it is likely, if Hillary does not drop out, that neither will have enough delegates to claim the nom. It would go to the convention. I don't think that will be good for the party at all, regardless of who ends up with the nom.
