1. Go Keith.....n/t

[Guarionex]

2. Congrats Keith

Our viewing support is conditional on you not dropping the ball on the election fraud stories..

a warning to DUers...don't put all your eggs in one basket...the moment Keith is convinced "fraud didn't happen", he'll abandon the story...and leave those who are convinced it did happen in the dust.

He's a useful ally...but don't fully trust him.

3. How long will it be before the network...

cooks these numbers and cancels him because he says too much

[mprest]

4. Well, now he'll get cancelled.

Didn't they cancel Donahue last year when he was getting the highest ratings of any show on the network?

6. Yeah Keith!

Maybe someone will figure out there is an audience for news other than Michael Jackson and Scott Peterson.

[Guaranteed]

7. That's a TREND, I believe, folks- in OUR favor.

HA you stupid repuke FUCKS.

Advertise THAT.

8. Hey MSNBC Scarborough's ass is dragging.

Not really--he's up too--but compared to Olbermann and even Tweety that RW stuff isn't bringing in new viewers.

Maybe the 49% who didn't vote for Bush need news and opinion too.

Good for Keith.
