MM scares the shit out of these guys. There's not ONE republican commentator or politician that will appear on the same forum as MM most especially Fred Thompson because he will absolutely wtfbbqpwn them and they know it.
Of course, you'll always have baddog and guys like that making these tepid wishywashy criticisms of MM without ever quite being able to vocalize why they don't like him, but I don't think MM or anyone who follows him gives a shit.

I agree that he does a lot of softball interviews, but I have seen him put some people on the spot pretty hard. Better than any "mainstream" news network, anyway.
Although, I couldn't believe how pathetic Stewart was when he interviewed Dennis Miller recently. I guess it's because they're friends. He just sat there and let Miller call the dems in congress scary without pointing out how wrong Miller and the people he propagandizes for have been about every issue they've talked about for the past five years. He went easy on Bolton, too.
