Sad news, my friends:
"Hannity & Colmes" will soon be without "Colmes."
Alan Colmes, the longtime liberal half of the Fox News Channel prime time program, will leave the show at the end of the year, the network announced Monday. His departure will represent a major change to Fox’s evening lineup.
Mr. Colmes will remain at the network as a commentator and will develop a possible weekend program. He will also continue to host his 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. radio show, "The Alan Colmes Show."
The real question, though, is who will replace the eminently replaceable Colmes? Which self-hating "liberal" can Fox just rotate into his place? Here are some suggestions:
- Lanny Davis
- Susan Estrich
- Mickey Kaus
- Joe Lieberman
- Most of The New Republic's staff
And that's just for starters. I'm sure you guys have many more ideas. Let 'er rip!
