The hit on Patriot Radio happened when OKC occurred. Mainstream folks started staying away in droves, since too many of those guys either had some sort of connection with the militias or were too sympathetic to McVey. McVey did more to hurt Patriot Radio than anything the MSM or Clinton could ever do.

True, I forgot about OKC although some did sputter on until the 2000 election it seemed. If you want my opinion, not only McVeigh did a lot of damage to Patriot Radio but to us as conservatives. Yes, we managed to hold on after that because of Bill Clinton but at times, it was by our fingernails. I think we could have won the Presidency in 1996, even with Dole, had OKC not happened, but McVeigh's actions pushed our efforts back for half a decade at least until we finally got it together in 2000.
