He seems pretty up front about it actually. He wrote a book pimping Mitt, so it would be pretty hard for him to deny it. I do think he's turning into kind of a hack, though. I still listen because he's got some awesome guests.
Yup, his guests are the best. I can’t cite an example about him denying it but I do remember my reaction a few times when I said to myself “c’mon Hugh, you know you’re 100% behind Mitt”.

I like HH best when it's not an election year -- when he's not pushing an agenda. And one of my favorite features of his is the "smart guys" segments, with a liberal and conservative talking about issues in the courts. First because rarely does anyone else talk about legal issues, and also because everyone remains calm and respectful.
It's a pleasant contrast to the shoultfests on cable. I usually come away from an HH segment knowing more about both sides of the argument than I knew before. I can't say the same after watching people scream at each other on TV.
