  Get rid of Abrams. The sooner, the better. He ran MSNBC into oblivion when he terminated Don Imus for no reason what-so-ever. The only reason he got a job was because of his father. The O.J. I kept him on the air. He is a bald headed geek loser. Drive him from the air waves forever. Please. Besides, I love Rosie. Everybody knows that.
