It's interesting that Mancow is having to deal with this from the other direction now. He's appeared several times on Countdown (partially because Olbermann/MSNBC donated to a good cause), and is earning a lot of respect from people on the left for being honest, but he's having to deal with what I would assume are people that used to listen to him religiously. That must be very surreal for him. Do you think that they honestly don't trust him after listening to him for so long, or is it feigned disbelief in order to sustain a state of cognitive dissonance? If it's the latter, how long can that dissonance really last? Will my liberal children's children be having this same debate?
