      How does this widely liberal political host now have a night talk show same time slot non political host yet there r no conservative night time talk show hosts. Media is bias toward liberal, more liberals should be fired or more conservative hired to be more fair.

      Isn't that obvious?
      There are no conservatives talented enough to do the job.
      I mean, name me one successful conservative comedian, one successful form of conservative comedy show!
      Fox has tried once a conservative version of the Daily Show - of course it failed massively.

One of the only true solid Conservatives running, unfortunately he was shunned by the lamestream liberal media, the progressive RNC, and everyone else (He was rarely, if ever in any polls); probably because he didn't have millions to throw into the campaign. Sadly, it seems like there is no room for Conservatives in the Republican party anymore either, I mean just look at the three frontrunners, I am ashamed to have ever identified myself as a Republican, knowing I was in the same Party as liberal Trump, phony RINO, Constitutionally ineligible Cruz, and Gang of Eights, ineligible anchor baby Rubio.

    He deviates from the Johnny Carson style humor. May take awhile to bring the ratings up. People might get used to it over time.

      Christian The Non-Christian​ You may notice that UA-cam video have disabled, and deleted Comments, because they don't want that discussion. The Daily Show didn't have ratings because it was called "News" but it wasn't popular, they pushed it to make it seem popular.
      I don't want to get into arguments with Sock puppets so I will disable Comments here.

    Honestly, I had no idea that Geo Pataki was so sensibly moderate. No wonder not a single Repub supported him with votes.
