No, that's not it. I'm not saying that Geraldo is incapable of changing his spots. I just don't believe he has, yet. Not at all. I've seen him the media for somewhere around 20 years and he's spent the vast majority of that time as a sensationalist. Remember Al Capone's vault? How about "wrestling is fake"? Then there were the numerous satanic cult episodes. And the "believe the children" campaign that hurt so many innocent parents. I'd say he started showing his first signs of "waking up" in the late 90's, but even that has been interlaced with much grandstanding and little regret. It's difficult to view him as sincere. I may not be anti-Geraldo forever ... but I will be cautious forever; and I encourage the same in everyone. We all have our sweet spots that someone who knows what they are doing can use against us. Geraldo has found that sweet spot in many of us in this forum. His conversion to conservatism has been all to convenient with his professional goals timeline. I'm not convinced, but I do remain convince-able.
