[television is just wrong]

They've underestimated their audience. Now they've screwed themselves.

[Bonaparte]

"They've underestimated their audience."

Snobs tend to do that. That's why they underestimated Ronald Reagan and GW Bush. It's also why they were caught completely by surprise when Reagan brought down their beloved USSR. They will always be easy to sucker punch because they consider themselves so much more sophisticated, so much better than the people who actually make America work.

They've underestimated their audience. Now they've screwed themselves. I think they were both comforted and entirely misled by the vast amount of protesters surrounding the convention. They felt the protesters represented the heartbeat of America, much as John Johns thought the same of Whoopie & friends. Remember after the 2002 elections, the rats decided the reason they sunk was they just simply didn't have the volume turned up high enough? Well, there's no doubt the networks turned up the volume for 'em since then, and now we have the same dumfounded statements all over again! They (MSM & rats) just cannot accept they are out on the fringe of society, and the louder and nastier they get about it, the farther they drift from shore. Too funny
