>>Right-wing radio hosts bracing for Barack Obama >victory >>By DAVID HINCKLEY >>DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER >> >>Thursday, October 30th 2008, 4:31 PM >> >>With the presidential election days away, the talking >>heads of right-wing talk radio are mood-swinging >>between anxiety over a potential winner they despise >>and hope that the polls and pundits have got it wrong. >> >>But the enthusiasm gap for John McCain afflicts some >>of the hosts as well. >> >>RELATED CANDIDATES' 4th QUARTER AUDIBLE >>Michael Savage, heard nightly on WOR (710 AM), >>announced Wednesday night that he was endorsing >>McCain, "even though he’s almost as bad as [GEORGE >>W.]Bush," because "we can’t afford to elect a radical >>Marxist like Barack Hussein Obama." >> >>His sense of obligation won out, Savage proclaimed >>dramatically: "My endorsement could change the >>election and help save America." >> >>Savage also has offered a few ideas that could >>expedite that process. "People on welfare shouldn’t be >>allowed to vote," he said. "They’ll only vote >>themselves a raise." >> >>That’s Savage being Savage. But at the same hour on >>WABC (770 AM), host Mark Levin bemoaned the potential >>election of a "socialist" who would "take away our >>freedoms" and end America as we know it. >> >>RELATED BARACK OBAMA GOES PRIMETIME >>"Sometimes I feel like I’m talking to myself," said >>Levin, who has also ripped McCain, but endorsed him >>after the Sarah Palin selection. "We need to do >>something." >> >>Earlier on WABC, Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-S.C.) warned >>Sean Hannity ominously that a President Obama "would >>knock guys like you off the air." >> >>Hannity himself has been repeatedly charged that we >>don’t know if Obama was really born in Hawaii and thus >>is really a citizen. >> >>That hosts like Hannity give voice to some of the >>wilder Internet-fed rumors offends at least one local >>program director, Rennie Bishop of WWRL (1600 AM), the >>local outlet of the liberal Air America network. >> >>"Talk radio now isn’t about issues, it’s about >>flame-throwing," says Bishop. "They’re just throwing >>anything out, no matter how pointless or baseless, to >>see if it will stick." >> >>Talk radio – or at least the 90% that sees itself as a >>proud outpost of traditional American values on a >>hostile liberal mediascape – has seen the McCain >>campaign as catch-up from the start. >> >>But veteran Republican cheerleaders like Hannity and >>Rush Limbaugh are not going to throw in the towel in >>the closing days. Each day they cherry-pick the polls, >>or parts of polls, that can support the argument that >>the race is close and McCain can pull it out. >funny how things worked out
