1. His loyalties to Howard Stern are just too strong?

2. Because, if there's one thing Imus hates, it's...

Strong women scare and intimidate Imus too. That I know.

9. That's exactly what I was thinking.
Talent is to Imus, what garlic is to a vampire. Bringing someone with talent on that turd of a show would only shine light on the fact that Imus is a worthless shit-bomb.

Plus, it would take time away from him giggling about Terry Bradshaw's country album he made 30 years ago.

6. One of the few times I've watched that fossil
(and one of the last) I believe he said some nasty things about Keith and his show. I'm sorry I didn't retain the exact hateful diatribe.

8. Keith isn't a suck-up
Which means he's not Imus' type.

12. Keith is the new "star" at MSNBC, much too cool and savvy for Imus.
Imus is a Republican, still talking and moaning over the loss of Santorum, thrilled about Lieberman. He makes me ill. Tim Russert is a regular call-in, Jon Meacham, etc. Imus is a control freak, Keith would never play along. Wonder if Chris realizes Keith is so much more popular these days with viewers like he USED to be............

14. Imus hasn't asked him, because Imus is smart enough (barely) to know that...
Keith would eat his lunch.
