Right on Steve! Randi is one of the sharpest tools in the shed on Radio today! She has been on target at least 98% of the time.
Seriously she is extremely well read and highly politically intuitive. She is amazing!

Bellingham AM 930 after Hartmann, who in his own right is one of the sharpest political minds you will find anywhere.

You can stream Randi Thom or Mike Malloy at NovaM Radio.
