Toronto, Ontario: Tony Snow's name has been bandied about as a possible replacement for Scott McClellan. There's no doubt he's qualified, but he was also Rush Limbaugh's frequent replacement host, is now a talk radio host of his own, and of course, has been a Fox News host since day one. Which is to say, I am sure he would be a strong advocate for the White House, but doesn't his track record suggest a hint of antagonism towards the "mainstream media" that might do the White House more harm than good? Robert G. Kaiser: Tony is a very nice guy, a friendly acquaintance of mine, and an unlikely candidate for enemy of the MSM. I'd be amazed if he wanted this thankless job, but one of the joys of life is contant amazement.
