Denny Shafer, could he eventually go national?

I love listening to him during the Glenn Beck vacations. For those who have listened to the show this week, do you think he could eventually go national?
 
Possibly, but the market is pretty tight to get any new talent any decent clearances.<P ID="signature">______________

I've heard Denny when I've visited Toledo. He's not bad from what little I've heard, and would seem to be a compatible fill-in for Glenn Beck.

But...where would he go as a syndicated host? It's all about the time slots, and all of 'em are jam packed. Heck, even Glenn's having his problems, being pushed on all sides in the 9-noon ET slot from Laura Ingraham and even Jerry Springer, who pushed him off his WTAM/Cleveland perch a while back.

Plus, Denny's something of a name in that market, and I have a feeling he'll stay there, though obviously he wouldn't turn down a big national contract if it ever came his way.

Denny ("He's an Idiot" if he still uses that line) filled in on WLW occasionally even while doing the Kiss morning show, he also served as one of the rotating hosts on the pre-McConnell "Weekend". Not bad, but, like we've both said, the market is saturated.<P ID="signature">______________
