22. Sorry for not giving more info........Sam Seder was a radio show
host on Air America. He started out with Jeanane Garofalo but was soon creative enough and funny enough to host the show all by his lonesome. I think he now has a weekly podcast/show on the internet.

I miss the good old days of being able to listen to Air America!

17. I'm not really criticizing him, but he does bounce. PS: I used to have

to do a lot of corp. presentations and I had a tendency to sometimes rock the podium! I didn't even realize I was doing it 'till someone pointed it out to me. Fortunately is was a pedestal podium and not one of the big ones, that would've been really a sight.

25. Chris has always been nearly unwatchable for me.
His fidgeting is extremely distracting, and I don't know why MSNBC hasn't trained that out of him yet.

Like the guy; he's smart. Just can't watch.

3. His views are good - his presentation is irritating.

9. +2: he's trying too hard to act like Rachel Maddow
He uses the same pacing and mannerisms. Plus, he looks like a chipmunk, which is probably not his fault, but he comes across like a kid playing at being an adult, at least IMHO. I can take him as an occasional contributor, but when he's subbing for another host I fast-forward a lot.

16. I like him but I doubt he has the personality to keep a show for very long
He doesn't scream host to me.

23. Feel the same way. Not a strong enough personality for the Fight Club atmosphere on MSNBC.

20. i like Chris Hayes, but - is MSNBC requiring more Republicans
on their shows.
I haven't had much time to watch recently, but when I do turn them on there is always a republic on.
If that is the new direction, i will probably watch less.
i hate to see time that could be used on real issues taken up by fucking with their crap.
