How is this possible

Amazon, Maher to swim in 'Fishbowl'
"New 30-minute entertainment Web program will make its debut June 1, exclusively on Amazon.com."

How is Bill Maher still popular, much less more popular than ever? His delivery, never a strong suit of his, has gotten more tortured than ever, or at least it was before I quit watching him. He also prefaced every line with "Isn't it really....".

I find a lot of left-wing comics (Mark Maron, Jon Stewart has come back quite a bit after a bad slump) funny, so I don't think it's that his politics are offensive to me, he just seems about as funny as an episode of Mama's Family these days.

De gustibus non est disputandum I suppose.
