Is KFTK's Dana trying a little too hard?

I think so.

KFTK's local air talent are all pretty conservative, and Dana Loesch is trying to be the lead dog on their sled.  Please remember throughout this coment what my personal politics are...

I had a long drive back home after a Lafayette Square lunch at 1111 Mississippi and kept Her Eminence tuned in all the way West on 40 to the homestead.  Dana's among the luckiest young conservative women in the world, what with her skills being recognized early on by Emmis, national talk hosts for whom she has subbed and FNC, who occasionally uses her as a pundit.

It might be just me, but I think that young Ms. Loesch might want to dial it back just a hair or two.  Slow it down and fact it up, as they say. Copying Ms. Laura may not be the best way to go. There are a lot of young conservatives in the region vying for national prominence.  A sharper note is not always better when you should be playing with the band. The lead dog is not always the one who barks the loudest, blah blah blah.
