I read a review by someone who made a great point - there really was no reason for Hayes to write this book. It's not going to appeal to anyone beyond his viewers (which is still so low that their news division is still looking for a replacement for Hayes). Very few (or zero) independents/moderates will be persuaded by Hayes.

I've read rumors that some at MSNBC actually don't have any respect for Hayes. His only supporter there is Rachel Maddow.

Hayes tried to deceive viewers by claiming on his show that George Wallace was a Republican, and got caught misquoting Bill O'Reilly so badly that Hayes' bosses forced him to apologize. When you're forced to apologize to O'Reilly, that's pretty bad. He's basically a sloppy version of Rachel Maddow.

Bill - I can sum up Hayes' remedy that he puts forth in his book - he wants to soak the rich with more taxes and somehow pipe the money directly into others. (Sort of like an expanded social security). He doesn't advocate taking the increased revenue and investing in more infrastructure - he basically wants to pipe it to others.

So Bill, I just saved you 10 bucks for not having to buy the book. :)

No need to send me a fee, it was my pleasure to serve you, haha.
