American Afternoon with Ron Kuby Thursday May 22nd 2008
Barack Obama moved a bit closer to wrapping up the nomination as he is less than 70 delegates away. Hillary Clinton is vowing to push on and possibly take the fight to the convention in August. Barack Obama continues to focus on the general election and taking on John McCain. Obama also seems to be having a bit of an issue with certain communities. Ari Berman, from The Nation, will join Ron Kuby in HOUR ONE to talk about it.
Kicking off HOUR TWO will be guest Taylor Marsh. Taylor Marsh is a Clinton supporter who maintains the major blog site for Clinton fans and expert analysis on all election-year topics, including the results of the ongoing Presidential primaries.
Also joining Ron in HOUR TWO will be David Wilhelm. Wilhelm is a political operative and businessman. Wilhelm is best known for managing campaigns for President Bill Clinton, Senator Paul Simon, Senator Joe Biden, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich and Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley. Wilhelm is a 2008 super delegate to the Democratic National Convention. He is supporting Barack Obama's candidacy and is informally advising the Obama campaign. Wilhelm is a venture capitalist who focuses on spurring sustainable economic growth in areas that tend not to receive much investment.
Closing out today’s show will be guest Daniel Lazare. Lazare is the author of, most recently, The Velvet Coup: The Constitution, the Supreme Court, and the Decline of American Democracy. He is currently at work on a book about the politics of Christianity, Judaism and Islam for Pantheon.

Can't stress how awful this show is!
Got through about 20 minutes as an aggregate total between Mon and Thursday. Kuby is unlistenable. Another rich liberal spouting essentially conservative propaganda clothed in his past ACLU-glory. What a shamneful blow hard. Put Sam on and stop screwing around!
