That's going to get ugly, I think. It's much easier to attack someone in power than defend them. I don't listen, but heard clips of their Wed. shows on the way home yesterday. They're lacing up the gloves already.
And who knows how many clones will find their way onto the airwaves? It ain't going to be pretty.
Not if some of the Dems get their way. Back in March I went to a meet-n-greet with my district's congressperson, Carol Shea-Porter. We were allowed one question each. I asked her position on reinstituting the "Fairness Doctrine" for radio stations. Her response was that it was definitely on the minds of party leaders and with a Democrat in the White House congress could probably push it through. I don't listen to political talk radio, but I see it as an important outlet for opposing views on the national and local scene. I know there are a lot of folks out there who would like to be able to muzzle guys like Limbaugh, but this is not the way to go about it.

I actually saw a very insightful post on TeamSarah.org the other day. I can't seem to find it now, but it was along the lines of why the Repubs. lost was because the Dems really put themselves out there and knocked on doors and did the whole process, while many of the Repubs. on the very conservative side in terms of social/family values didn't hit the pavement enough to get their message out. Once they finally figured this out (around the time Palin was added to the ticket...), it was too late. I think partly because McCain just simply wasn't that appealing to those types of conservatives--their needs weren't fully represented. When Palin was selected, they identified with that, and really got out there.

Please don't anyone misread this as "Palin is why they lost" because I actually think with better timing, Palin would be why they could have won.


I wish I could find that post because it was the most sense I've ever seen make sense on that Web site (that site displays weird on my work computer and it's hard to search and find stuff--I'll see if I can't find it when I get home). One of the main points was rather than boycotting anything and everything that is found morally repulsive and simply shunning it and not supporting anyone or any thing that has anything to do with it, but to stand back and see the root cause of the issue and address the issues, not the candidates.

It was good advice for anyone, no matter which side of the party line you stand.

The thing is that even if the Fairness Doctrine gets put into law, I'd have to imagine that someone would bring suit against it, and I'd think that the Supreme Court would/should overturn the Doctrine, especially with 4.5 conservatives on the Court (I wouldn't put Kennedy in the same category on the same level as the other conservatives, but he's certainly right of center).

McCain-Feingold should have been overturned as well. Saw how well that one worked. Bush failed on that one. He apparently even said he thought it was unconstitutional, but he'd let the courts decide. Should have vetoed it.

Then again, I think he should have vetoed a lot of things he didn't.

It's a little late, I was having camera and computer issues, but this was 30 Rock on Election Night when I left the office. Blue lights on the left, red lights on the right and a "270" banner on each side not quite halfway up the building.

No, I'm at work, and, for some reason, they don't have a sense of humor here when it comes to that sort of thing.
