Olbermann basically offered Obama fellatio. Here are Keith's hard hitting interview questions:
What do you think of the McCain-Palin campaign ads?
What can you do to counter the lies of John McCain?
Have you thought of getting angrier on the campaign trail?
Have the Republican succeeded in muddying up the issues?
Shouldn't you ask voters if they are better off today than they were 8 years ago?
Compare those softballs to the O'Reilly interview of Obama:
1. Will you admit you were wrong about the Surge?
2. Is Iran a component of the war on terrorism?
3. Are you prepared to stop Iran militarily if diplomacy does not work?
4. Why do you imply you will invade Pakistan to get Bin Laden if you will not?
5. Are you playing Robin Hood Obama by taxing the rich to give to the poor?
6. Isn't your tax policy a Marxist idea for the redistribution of wealth?
6. Why don't you factor in the cost of the war on terror for the cause of record US deficits?
7. Why don't you acknowledge that the massive influx of illegal aliens caused a depression in US wages?
It's obvious why Billo destroys Olbermann in the TV ratings.

The problem is one gets tired of explaining the same answers to idiots.
If the surge proves successful and there is a political reconciliation. It’s unfortunate that the planning for the war didn’t include a plan for the peace. At 10 billion a month it was an expensive lesson for incompetent leadership of the republicans. A lesson paid for by the American Taxpayer
terrorism is a tactic. A country cannot declare war on a tactic.
Stop them from doing what?
A decapitation strike or snatch operation does not require an invasion
5 and 7 are tied together.
Applying Adam Smith’s idea that taxes should be paid by those that can most afford them is a good idea and has worked in the past. All should share in the cost for war. Shared sacrifice in times of War is an American Value
You should read Marx before embarrassing yourself with this question.
The massive influx of aliens is a symptom of failed trade policy. Addressing the core problems instead of the symptoms creates good policy.
9) It's obvious why Billo destroys Olbermann in the TV ratings.
Yes it is. It explains how we got a second Bush term and why their party’s candidate for president is trying desperately to distance himself from those failed policies.

Flashback: Olbermann Gloated at 'B*****d' O'Reilly's Audience 'Dying Off'
QUOTE
Olbermann, on the June 28, 2006, Countdown: "Bill, seriously, it's slipping away from you. You don't know what to do. You can't even lie well anymore. Seriously, I understand, it's called panic. ... It's terrifying. You begin to see the audience dying off and the creases deepening in your forehead and the loofahs drying up. You make mistakes, you trust the wrong people, you blame Al Franken, you yell at somebody, you yell at everybody. It feels like the ladder is teetering, you're tired, you're depressed, you're anxious, you're balding. Let me give you three words of advice, Bill-O: Keep it up!"
Fox News dominates cable TV news ratings year after year after year. MSNBC is consistently dead last at the bottom. No matter how much they try to sugarcoat & parse the ratings numbers the facts remain the same; Olbermann gets his ass kicked by Bill O'Reilly every gattdam night.
Olbermann couldn't have made it any easier for Obama if he had set the questions up on a T-ball stand and given Barack a Louisville Slugger. 
If you want to see a REAL interview, watch O'Reilly tonight.
