Cloeaning House in Arizona

The Arizona Daily Star is doing a tiny bit of housecleaning:

Finally, we've decided that syndicated columnist Ann Coulter has worn out her welcome. Many readers find her shrill, bombastic and mean-spirited. And those are the words used by readers who identified themselves as conservatives.
They aren't going to over do it though. There is a replacement:
Taking her place on Saturdays will be Tony Snow, host of "The Tony Snow Show," syndicated nationally on Fox News Radio, and "Weekend Live with Tony Snow" on Fox News Channel. He has worked at a number of daily newspapers and is a former speechwriter for former President George H.W. Bush.
I've listened to him briefly a few times and he seems to be a Hannity lite. Some folks are excited to see Coulter get the deserved boot but Snow will get more respect and tend to solidify the rank and file. Coulter could nauseate folks enough that a few of them might have been driven to see the bushies as no friends of freedom and liberty.
