First, let me say we have been lurking for a few months now (this is my very first post), visited TV in September ((loved it!) and are planning a trip in January with the intention of looking very seriously at buying. We won't be retiring for a couple of years but my question is: given the recent information that Beck, Palin and Huckabee have either recently made appearances or are planning some in TV, as a couple of left leaning independents can we be happy in TV?

Let me also add that we are in WEST Michigan - the more conservative part of the state and are quite used to being in the minority!
