Watching Fox News to catch up on the latest Delay news, I see that Rick Folbaum is filling in for Shep Smith.
My two cents says Folbaum is better than Shep. Smith is too 'hot,' not in the Paris Hilton meaning, but in the sense that the show often seems more about him than about the news. He's a distraction.
Folbaum seems more of a straightforward TV news journalist. He wears better.
Your thoughts?
By the way, Folbaum refereed a debate on the Delay matter between Democrat Cong. Pasquale of New Jersey and Republican McHenry of North Carolina. I have to admit I thought Pasquale got the better of the exchange. He came across as more spontaneous and real. McHenry, as Pasquale pointed out, seemed to be reading from a list of talking points.
Here's a link to Folbaum's bio:

Good grief. Why don't you stand out in 125 MPH winds and see how gracefully you fall. Ridiculous!
Agree, I do not watch the Drama Queen Shep. He was part and parcel of the fraud that was the reporting on Katrina and the Cesspool, aka NO!
I have to head out now, but when I get back I'll tally up all the votes. Rick is definitely leading, but the polls haven't closed in some of those Shep-leaning precincts on the West Coast!
For Pete's sake...Get a Grip!
Put Shep Smith and Juan Williams together and you might get half a brain.
Shep has revealed his penchant to te left too many times for me, plus I still remember him saying the Swift Boat Vets were liars.
His completely hysterical hurricane coverage was the last straw.
I also would like someone to slap Neil Cavuto up the side of the head and get him to quit pandering to Jack Welch and wringing his hands over everything that happens.
And now from Fox News headquarters in Studio B, here's Sophie!
"Ruff! Ruh-ruff ruff ruff...."
The mascara brush MIGHT be pointing that way.
Oooops! Sorry .. did that kitty belong to you ..??
I like them both. I don't think it's an either/or thing.
"I like them both. I don't think it's an either/or thing."
I'm with you, both of them are very good.
Having worked in radio and TV - they all use makeup - so that has nothing to do with it.
I vote Anybody But Shep. Hw reminds me of Anderson Gay on that other channel. I go surfing during the hour they're both on.
You know people who use makeup for radio???? That's not gay, that's stupid....
I believe Frost lost his seat because of the redistricting in Texas.
I like Folbaum, also.
Well .. I'm sorry that I worded it the way I did .. because if I had worded it correctly .. it wouldn't have been such a stupid statement.
You're right .. I've never known any radio guys who use make-up (except for the promo shots), but all the TV people did wear makeup. I used to do TV commercials (for local businesses), and I also had to wear make-up.
