Talkradio and 2008 Election

D

Does anyone else think talk radio will benefit if a Democrat is elected President? Hosts like Limbaugh, Hannity, Boortz, Beck etc. could very well stand to gain listeners looking for a broadcasting outlet who shares their critical opinions of the new president, while perhaps having a Democratic president may just jump start progressive talk.

Judging from the rise of talk radio after the 1992 elections, it looks like the former will happen.
 
A Dem win would certainly boost Rush and Hannity, although I would think it would be boring as hell if all the bashing started over again after the election.

I've noticed they have a definite pro Romney slant, even though they won't admit it. Fox News as well.
 
We will here because of two things: a very tight senate race and the DNC will be here in August. We are already getting political dollars being spent. And if things keep up the way they have been Colorado could be a very important state. Numbers wise have to wait and see.
