Hannity is a very nice guy, and his conservative tone resonates with a lot of listeners across the airwaves, but my impression of him is that he's not nearly as talented as people make him out to be. He hasn't got nearly the on-air style that Rush Limbaugh has, and he spends most of the time on the air parroting the same canned buzz-words and catch-phrases.
"buzz words",p. Thank you!!! I've listened to Hannity since he was hired to replace Bob Grant. He's personable and willing to meet the other side, but he has the depth of a piece of scotch tape. His use on mantras, particularly in rapid sucesssion, would do Al Sharpton proud.
IMVHO my greatest fear is that the liberal media starts replaying Hannity's drum beating for war all over the air. Last week on my way home, he seemed giddy about the coming hostilities. As one who supports Bush's course in this matter, I was horrified. His "on the brink of war" intros seem like countdown to Super Sunday. Unlike Rush who sees this war as necessary for the safety and security of America, I get the feeling that Hannity sees it as another bump in his ratings. He's entertaining, and stuck in traffic on the LIE he's a diverting listen, but William F. Buckley he's not.
Not as much as Savage though.
