Who do you think is the smartest liberal and the smartest conservative on television?

[Billy000]

Let's face it: If you can't fully answer this question, then you do not have an informed opinion on American politics. (or you don't watch TV, but chances are still know the answer to this question.)

My answer:

Liberal: Jon Stewart/Rachel Maddow

Conservative: Bill O'Reilly


(Yes, I realize The Daily Show isn't the best source for politics, but Jon Stewart himself is very intelligent.)

 

[Si modo]

Charles Krauthammer.

George Will is a close second.

 

[Avatar4321]

I am.

Of course, Im not on the tv very often. It can only support so much weight.

 

[J.E.D]

Liberal: possibly Ezra Klein

Conservative: possibly Ron Christie

 

[Billy000]

Finally, a solid answer. Thank you.

I don't have TV... I actually have to research issues myself.

1. If they are liberals they aren't very smart
2. Any true Conservative hick is smarter then a liberal who others thinks smart

Left too many to pick from.

right David Gergan

 

[Jackson]

Dick Morris and Karl Rove when it comes to political strategy. And Bob Beckel. I believe they are all honest and very interesting. They are usually right on the money.

he is concidered a RINO I guess because he was willing to try and help his country under a Democratic president once

I rest my case.

Shut up, hack. Go troll someplace else.

 

[Chris]

Rachel Maddow, hands down.

She's a Rhodes scholar with a Phd from Oxford.

I'm a Hack? Don't think so. But you on the other hands are liberal approved hack. We can compare post to see who is a hack and who isn't.

Wow, how incredibly uninformed.

The smartest liberal is clearly Roger Ebert, Stewart is not even in the top 20.

The smartest conservative is harder to pin down, but Dennis Miller and George Will are two that pop into my head.

So is Dr. Maddow.

O'Reilly was impressive pre 2008. Its almost as if he is going much more right since.
