Actually, I think you, as a New York City Republican, and Hannity have alot in common and I thing you will absolutely enjoy the show entirely.
OK, since you brought it up, yes, I absolutely enjoy his show. He's fantastic, and I can't understand why so many of you fellow FReepers criticize him the way you do. So, he doesn't agree with you 100% of the time, big deal.
Ask yourself, what major issue do you disagree with? Taxes? Pro-life? Family Values? His views parallel your boy McClintock's almost to a tee (I happen to have great admiration for McClintock as well, though I struggle with his staying in after the next round of polls, if in fact he's still trailing badly).
Do I listen to him for his intellectual insight? Nah, I have Rush on in the background for 3 hours before that. I also check out various web-sites including FR for my news and mental stimulation.
Am I more informed or smarter after listening to Sean? Not really, same answer as above.
Sean may be an intellectual light-weight, and that's fine. He's not going to change that- we already have the Coulters/Rushes/Hewitts for that. He does, however, serve a HUGE purpose.
What is it?
GET THE CONSERVATIVE MESSAGE OUT!
No one works harder or is more influential in this country, including Rush, than Sean is. I'm so glad he's on our side... I'd bet he's responsible for bringing more people to our side than any other media personality-period.
I keep him on in the background, and in the car when I'm fortunate enough to leave before 6. I LOVE the way he pounds libs and doesn't let them get away with their lies. I LOVE the way he gives them just enough rope to let them hang themselves in debates. True, he's often not the best debater and can be arrogant, but think about how much good he does. He sticks to the message and pounds away again and again, until any simpleton gets it and understand the ramifications involved when deciding on who to support. You and I are not necessarily always the target audience. If it's a soccer mom, or a small business owner, or a person who's been totally brainwashed by the liberal media- the more the message gets out, and the lies and hypocrisy are exposed, the better off we'll all be.
I'm glad he's on our side. Are you?
