I think, however, the bottom line on this issue _ and a great many others - is how successful the Lefts agitprop machinery is. They seem to feel that they were merely not as hard working and as clever as they should have been prior to this year. They seem to think that they underestimated the Right last time around and that they better not do that again. ANd underneath it all is the notion that the electorate is still stupid, we just did not scare them enough and the lies were pitched wrongly.
Is this so?
Is that the case, or has the electorate moved on? Has the electorate seen through them. We will not understand this through the media's own presentations. We will understand this at the ballot box.
I really think that at this point it is anyones guess.
I do think that it is heartening to see the results of the Dutch and French votes of last week. Whatever on feels about the EU Constitution and the direction of the EU, one has to admit that the media headwind in Europe was so strongly for the EU that one would have thought even 6 months ago that the notion France rejecting it was almost in the realm of Science Fiction.
I know that it is the EU. But it shows me that the media games of the Establishment Left are beginning to crack.
Again, time will tell. It is up tho the GOP to speak to the American people over the heads of the media just as R. Reagan did. It is possible to do so.
