Perhaps the Political Suicide Club Conservatives might want to consider this. In all the political wet dream fantasizes that "Conservatives win by losing" what do they think happens to their slim chances of taking BACK the Congress if the Democrats follow up this with a reinstitution of the Fairness Doctrine?
The Fairness Doctrine would totally destroy Conservative Talk Radio. Without talk Radio the Conservative ability to win the Congress back goes from slim to nonexistent. This wacko wild butt guess that by losing the Congress the Republicans would be "forced" to more to the right is the dogma of political Know Nothings. This "idea" shows a complete ignorance of the powers of incumbency and the very real damage Democrats could do even if by some miracle they only held the Congress 2 years.

Top Democratic congressional leaders are complaining to network and cable television news executives that the networks are giving the party short shrift in national security stories.
"Until now, there has been a complete absence of balance in the news coverage of national security issues," House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. and Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said in letters sent yesterday to top news executives at NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox News Channel and CNN.

No Clue.
McCarthyism protected this country, and those who hate it are closet socialists who hate him so much because he was right and called them on the carpet. Liberals are acting like what they accused McCarthy of acting like. Liberalism is the new judgemental persecuting militant McCarthyism being directed at conservatives and Chrsitians, as though Conservatism and Christianity are a threat today like what Socialism REALLY WAS to America in the 50s and 60s and 70s and 80s. But Socialism WAS AND IS a real threat to America. Conservatism and Christianity have never been a threat to American, those things created America, and without Conservatism and Christianity there would be no America. Liberals have become the radical McCarthy types they supposedly hate, and have become what they demonized McCarthy for being, which he never really was. He was a patriot, a good American, and in no small part, defeated socialism's growing movement in America. He should be memorialized.
