Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - Should Obama talk to Hannity or Limbaugh?

I've caught a few minutes of these talk shows on the radio last week and both of them would like Obama to come on. Probably because their ratings would be triple what they usually are. But Obama would be able to talk to a group of people who he needs to win over. Or that group will nitpick every little thing he does wrong without offering a real plan to fix the problems in a way that is fair for all, not just the people who have been successful in the past 8 years.

I also thought Bush should have gone on The Daily Show or SNL. They would have made a few jokes, but he could have explained what his plans were to a large group of people that didn't always hear the other side of the reason behind things.

Or have these people already made up their minds and it would be too risky to go on any of these 'gotcha' media shows?
