    It would be like James Carville running for President. Man, what a sideshow. If I were on the left side of the spectrum, I'd welcome it. He'd be the best rallying point the Democrats would have in 2012.

    However, other than running a few news organizations and being the guy who crafts the message, rather than developing the policy itself, what are his credentials? They seem as thin as President Obama's.

    Ailes is probably as qualified as anyone, but we don't elect guys like him anymore. Today's presidential candidates have to be slim and fit, and look good on TV. LBJ was the last "fat boy" we elected.

    Isn't that John Corzine's specific critique of Chris Christie? :devilwink:

    The last election showed that experience doesn't necessarily win the election... I think people just need to believe what the candidate is saying. BTW... I never heard of that guy before today.

    Everything we don't need.

    Right-wing liar born before WWll, who controls, edits and distorts the public's view of world events.

    Thank our lucky stars he's such a big tub of goo he'll probably die before then.

    Ailes runs a very successful business.

    He's overqualified to be President.

    Shep Smith, one of the best, and most fair anchors on TV.

    He can't be! He works for FOX! Don't you know FOX isn't a legitimate news organization.

    I've been saying for a while. Shep Smith is amazing. Everytime I diss Fox, I try and mention Shep as the only good thing going for them.

    He proved it again.
