Liberal talk radio has never worked because the liberal mouthpieces cannot back up their absurd positions on various subjects, and when backed into a corner they either attempt to "sling mud", or they just clam up altogether. If a talk radio host can't legitimately hold his own against "hostile" callers, he will fail miserably, as almost all liberally-oriented talk radio has.
Libertarians and many conservatives have had huge success in radio because they are willing to be confronted "out in the open" by their opponents and can reinforce their stated position on issues with facts.
