If he had faced Pocahontas, or anyone else for that matter, he would have used a different strategy to WIN. I think EVERYONE OVERRATES the significance of Hillary’s NEGATIVES, and UNDERRATES that Trump is just a freakin’ genius at communications and strategy.

LOL - yes, I know you're right. I figured it out when Trump targeted Walker (to test the water) then Jeb - because he had the most money and 'staying power'... and took them both out. It was also fun watching people who had no clue what Trump was up to (like Morning Joe and O'Reilly) giving him 'advice' on how to win.

It was funny if not painful at times watching. Trump's like Bobby Fisher (years ago) listening about how to play chess from some unrated high school teacher.

Brava, Leni! Excellent comments re Tucker Carlson's show in #78.

That's exactly the point I was trying to make at too late an hour last night. Tucker's liberal guests are now *dominating* the air time on his show every night. Drives me nuts.

I'm glad you sent those comments (twice) to FNC. I can tell you from experience, they DO listen to viewers' concerns. Even if they may not respond. I hope Tucker listens and we see fewer of these libs on his show... I do want him to succeed.

Last night's interview with the ‘liberal’ college student who believed in ‘free speech for all Americans’ was wonderful. He supported Milo being allowed to speak... It hearkened back to a time when democrats were ‘the other team’ - - not the ‘mortal enemy’ of all that is good.

I did happen to see that segment last night. It was good; a rare "tolerant" liberal/Democrat. I pretty much checked out of the show when the next liberal guest came on though.

But a little goes a long way when it's die hard apologist for evil... those interviews could be scaled back. It's not like we're not exposed to liberal thought - it's the sea we swim in.

Well said!

Maybe Tucker should start the show with the stuff we enjoy and move the ‘liberal showcase’ segment to a place 15 minutes AFTER the show starts. That said, I trust Tucker Carlson's instincts. He's still new to this - he'll be tweaking the show for the next year or two...

That's exactly what I've been hoping for. It's fine that he debates these libs, but not right off the bat *every night* and not so many of them. I agree that he'll probably be tweaking the show. His ratings continue to be good, though, so I guess those of us complaining are in the minority.

Tucker is married with several children

I knew that...

His stepmother (who raised him) was a Swenson Food heiress

Whoa... I did NOT know that!

I think watching a show every night does tend to tire one out - and that's not the fault of Tucker. But this roundelay of Krauthammer, Judge Napolitano, Brit Hume does get a little boring.

True, but Tucker does bear responsibility for the design and content of his show. His show is boring me far more than, for example, Hannity's show. Yeah, I get tired of Hannity's formula, too, but at least I mostly enjoy the guests, and learn something from them. Even some of the liberal ones.

I'm enjoying Lou Dobbs show more and more - he's fun and always righteously indignant on behalf of the president.

I have to remember to check out Lou Dobbs' show on a more regular basis. He's great... wouldn't surprise me if he was a FReeper! Thanks for the reminder.

That might explain why liberals treat Tucker as an equal - rather than with the usual contempt saved for conservatives... I didn't know that either.

One of the things I like about Tuckers interviews with liberal 'elites' (and YES at times those interviews can seem to go on too long) is that Tucker finds people who explain the loony-toon progressive positions. He doesn't waste a lot of time on the 'talking points' types - people who mouth the newest 'fashion belief' - often with limited understanding.

Tucker finds people who came up with the ideas - or can defend them - or are close enough to those people who do to be able to explain them. Well, as well as elitist irrational ideas can be explained...

Maybe if he followed one of those discussions with a chat with an intellectual conservative so we could get closure it'd be better. "Our Take". Watters is capable of that type of discussion.

Thanks for bringing this up nutmeg and for your many thoughtful comments. It's worth thinking about.

Gay men use men’s rooms too. They don’t always use them to hook up with other guys.

Hillary would of lost in 2008 if she had been nominated by her party....she is probably the worst candidate with a recognizable name they could of gotten. I liker the job Trump is doing but I don’t think trump would of won against anyone else. Hillary is incompetent politically. she took a look at all 17 republican candidates and conspired with the media to have one of three candidates become the republican nomination. the three were Herman Cain, Ted Cruz and trump. all three of them probably the worst ones for her to run against because all three are candidates that had passion about runing. the better one from the 17 would of been john Kasich, Jim Gilmore, Lindsey graham. because all three of them would not of been able to take the preaure and would of tried to soft serve conservativism and in doing so lost the base of the party

I’m tiring of watching Tucker’s “half bemused half confused” look every night. It’s getting old.
