He was good at analysis and statistics, so his segments were rather interesting. I don't think he has what it takes to carry his own one hour show. I don't watch his show anymore.

I just want to shave it off whenever I see him. The mustache is fine, but he doesn't have enough hair for a goatee and he looks like a teenager experimenting unsuccessfully with his first beard.

Yeah, I'll bet some girl (or his wife) told him he looked SO handsome with a goatee and he believed her.

At least, that's what it seems to me. I don't recall him being that way in the 2004 election, but then, it could be I wasn't paying attention.
