http://www.dailyfinance.com/story/media/is-america-getting-over-keith-olbermann/19337944/?ncid=webmaildl8 I have my beliefs on why Olbermann's ratings are tanking...and why Hannity's, O'Reilly's, and Beck's continue to RISE.

Euphoria for President Obama has died. The ‘wanting’ for liberal commentary/chatter has subsided. Euphoria is temporary. The ‘yearning desire' for a Left platform always gets put down when the Left gets flustered e.g. Health Care pending defeat. Why? The Left is full of fickle supporters. Their allegiance is no where near as strong and powerful as the Right’s. The Right supporters almost never stop supporting because they are addicted to and loyal to Party, not man/politician. They are on the Right for what the Right stands for. It’s ideology. Not the character playing the part. President Barack Obama for the Left is playing the part. He is the Left's figure-head who is challenged to appease the Left in a popularity contest. The Right's character is cemented in those who vote Republican.
Not sure why Americans who lean to the Left forget this: The Right is what makes up this country. Principles of America began on the Right's foundation. Think about it...Conservative values are ingrained in American culture. Socially liberal we are perceived because of media blasts e.g. soap operas - but America is 'mid-West plagued'.
Black people at the core are conservative. We were once Republican in large numbers. The dichotomy struggle: Blacks were hood-winked convinced to be liberal and to lean toward the Left while we are innately conservative in thinking. We don't support a woman's right to chose, we don't respect homosexuality, we are extremely judgmental, we are racist and separatist, and we are foolish bible-thumpers: All conservative values.
With this understanding and reality, people who listen to Keith Olbermann are in many ways satisfied, comfortable in the now, and politically lazy. While Republicans function as if the world is going to end ALL the TIME. Democrats and the Left move too slow. And, they NEVER strategically plot like Republicans. Doing the right thing is not always the best and necessary thing e.g. reversing Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. One (Democrat President) should not drop an explosive and divisive topic without planning the navigation. Again, Democrats do not effectively plan/plot.

Olbermann's rhetoric is also sheepishly weak in most minds. The Left has always been seen as Yellow - and as a bunch of loose-lip jelly-back chatterers.
I conclude with: THE MOST POWERFUL CREATURE on EARTH IS WHITE/ CONSERVATIVE/REPUBLICAN: THE WHITE MAN.

I CONCUR; the right does stick togetherAND never waiver from party ideologies. Payne, it is also the controversial commentary of the right figure-heads or should I say racial epithets too. The HARD right really embraces it. Being controversial brings so much attention (whatever type). Hannity, Imus, Beck, Limbaugh etc, all understand this, however they truly feel!!
On the other hand the left has ALWAYS been soft (at least to me) that is no mystery. Politicians jump on the other side more frequently, they are less likely to stick together on policy even when they have a majority. Also, you were right (in the past) the left do not have that type of commentary.
That said, I don't know if the "high" for the President has DIED verses it has SUBSIDED! However, I am afraid you maybe right again in saying "he's one and done"!!
