I've got no idea where Rosie is these days. I seem to recall something about her wanting to "spend more time with her family" or something like that.
But while it was on the air, I do seem to recall she had steady and pretty good ratings.
As for Clinton, you're assuming he'd do a political talk show, which I agree would fail miserably. But of course, Slick is so much more (gag) than a tawdry politician. He's so (retch) sensitive, and he feels pain, and is (barf) a sex god, and he positively glows on-stage. I could easily imagine CBS putting him in a touchy-feely show aimed at Rosie's fan base, with a little politics thrown in to liven up the love-fest.
In fact, it might well be a very effective political forum for him. And, of course, it would serve Hillary's political ambitions quite nicely indeed.
Rosie is up there with the Alec Baldwin's, Babs, Turner ect... they are only a legend in their own minds and the few elitists that give them Airtime. I stand by my prediction that America has had its fill with leftism!! :)
