I watch them all, but don't love any of them. Some are just more entertaining than others.

Interesting poll, definitely more fair and less squewed than most...

I think O'reilly does a better job of reporting news... Franken is a has been comic trying his hand at politics and that's about it. Don't love either, don't hate either, but would not watch Franken unless someone paid me big $$$ to do so.. in cash !

This is a good example of the problem in America: this two-dimensional thinking drives me nuts.

Depends on the subject. Liberal on freedom, rabidly conservative fiscally.

Yeah, that on hung me up too... I tend to be moderate as an Independent but as you say it does boil down to specific topics and then I can be all over the place both in my own personal beliefs, as a woman/mother etc etc based on nothing more than my own likes/dislikes and life experiences. I hate having groups and politicans think for me and then try and convince me this is what's going on in my mind... No can do foo foo's... keep out of my head, I'm capable of controlling my own gray matter thank you !
