Wow! Something else to make me optimistic...

Jerry Springer to begin radio talk show. This is potentially interesting. Springer could really mix up state politics in Ohio. Before becoming a TV shock-clown he was VERY formidable in local politics in Cincinnati, the Republican base in Ohio. Note that as a Democrat, in a heavily Republican area, he was elected mayor with the biggest plurality in history.

But the real interesting and exciting thing is that there is going to be a liberal talk radio station in Cincinnati other than Air America. Nothing against, Air America, I love them. But another one. This means it is catching on. In Ohio. This is just outstanding news.
