Personally, I believe the listeners will be the winners in this game. Rush has put me off more than once with his golf game and cigars. He gets soft and lazy. More than one has turned his show off for these and other reasons.

Now, however, Rush will have some real competition. Won't be able to wander off in his self-aggrandizing reveries and maintain his audience. He'll have to have more substance (do real work). Perhaps we'll get to see Rush at his satirical best. That ain't bad. .

O'Reilly? He'll stir the pot awhile. I don't believe he'll translate well into radio. But think what the competition might bring if I'm wrong!

You're right. The listeners will be the winners. The ditto-heads will have a rude awakening when O'Reilly's ratings come out because a large part of Rush's former audience CANNOT TOLERATE his relentless Bush-bashing.
