This is the media “blame Bush” drumbeat reaching its crescendo. They will beat the “Republicans fault” no matter what happens.
Most people believe what they’re told without deeper investigation. They believe what they see on CNN, NBC etc..We need to change the media or we will continue to lose. There is no other method.
Thank God for alternative media, social media etc...
Unfortunately, the left is good at gobbling those up as well. Try talking politics as a conservative on a place like Reddit, Slashdot, etc. It's basically completely dominated by liberals and all conservative opinion is shouted down or down voted. The left is very organized in going about this and they drive all right of center opinion away from popular social media sites. At places like Digg there is basically no conservative opinions at all.
There are lots of conservative business people with deep pockets. We have got to get these folks to start buying up or creating media.
We need to change the media or we will continue to lose.
I agree. While we do have the new media, I think the situation is actually worse than ever. Conservatives are just constantly in a position where we have to fight a tide of opposition from most news outlets, most entertainment outlets, and most social media outlets. As soon as the next network is being sold off, Republican investors need to grab it up. Next time one of these big city papers is for sale, conservatives need to be there to buy it.
This is what the Republicans are up against--the media always trying to leverage the situation to benefit the Democrats. Of course it doesn't help to have some Republicans offering a pre-emptive surrender to the other side.
