If they really foresaw these problems, they should have been saying it again and again and again and again ad infinitim until the Dems publicly addressed it.
When the Democrats have an issue, they ALL get together and push it over and over. Eventually even the Right-wing press (newsmax for example) will write about it.
Yes, they have the media in their pockets, while the Republicans don't. But that's no excuse. They shouldn't hold one news conference and forget about it. They MUST be much more aggressive.

It's taken over 2 years for the media to examine Barack/Ayers/Acorn, and only now because of issue ads are they beginning to report on it, and somehow I doubt they will give it anything but Obama spin.
