Right On Schedule, Right-Wing Talk Radio In Polling Tizzy

Upset by polling out today showing Democratic Senate candidate Tammy Baldwin running even with or ahead of Republican Tommy Thompson, WTMJ righty radio afternoon Jeff Wagner talker says he doesn't believe the numbers, and that Baldwin is from the "kook fringe," but as a loyal GOP mouthpiece on its free radio platform, Wagner is worried and upset by today's political news.

"She's so far to the left," Wagner sputters. "This should be a pick-up" for the GOP....To the people running Tommy's campaign, get your heads out of you-know-where."

The talkers are so predictable. As I wrote this morning:

Expect a talk radio meltdown, with the hosts warning the base that the End Of The World Is coming on Nov. 6th if conservatives don't get their acts together.

1:56 p.m. post script:  Wagner's had a tough day and ended the second hour of his show by calling supporters of union organizing at Palmero's Milwaukee pizza factory "a bunch of idiots."

Talk radio in a nutshell.
