Whether one likes or dislikes Keyes ( I dislike) some reality has to be considered. MSNBC has certainly not had a sudden conversion, so an ulterior motive is highly suspected. They hope for Bush bashing or to overdose and annoy "moderate" viewers with Keyes and then paint him the poster child of extremists. Fair or not, his brand of speech can turn a lot of people off and what better tool for MSNBC to use to counter Bush's popularity. Some things don't add up regardless of Keyester enthusiasm. It is often true, "Be careful what you wish for."
