...along fine in their adversarial roles. If anyone gets belligerent on her new show, it won't be Rachel. And while critics who have called MSNBC the official network of Barack Obama weren't far wrong, Maddow is no cheerleader. During the primaries she assiduously avoided favoring either Clinton or Obama and has said that neither was her ideal candidate. (She'd have been totally committed to a Russ Feingold...
...Americans best at it were both radio veterans: Randi Rhodes and Maddow. Rhodes, a hard-line humorist who mixed Michael-Savage-of-the-left analysis with Belle Barth earthiness, was AAR's top-rated host when she lost her job after making ultra-rude comments about Hillary Clinton at a San Francisco nightclub performance this March.

As with Clinton, McCain's first instinct was to run on wisdom and longevity against the newcomer Obama. And as Clinton did, McCain discovered that many Americans are sick of experience if it means an M.B.A. in business-as-usual. So, again like Clinton, McCain shifted to the "fighter" theme: "I fight for Americans," he declared in his acceptance speech. "I fight for you." And he returned to the theme in the rousing finish...
