Steph Tanks

George Stephanopoulos is having some problems as host of This Week, and the ratings show it.

This bit is interesting:

Happily, the roundtable also is home to the show's best asset: the articulate and ever-sharp George Will. Television is overstaffed with pundits, most of whom are bearable only when they're saying what you want to hear, and often not even then. Will is one of the few who is worth hearing even if you're opposed to his positions.

Could you imagine the show with Will as host? It might not work, either, but at least it would give your week a jolt.

Why wouldn't it work? Will is everything the article (and simple observation) says Stephanopoulos isn't - acerbic, tough, mentally light on his feet.

Why on earth not?
