This illustrates why the left still doesn't and won't ever get it:
Conservatives are better marketers. They use all the tools of mass marketing better than liberals," said Michael Parks, director of the School of Journalism at the University of Southern California's Annenberg School for Communication.
The left insists that it's the "marketing", the "packaging", the "entertainment" that makes conservative talk radio successful.
The truth that liberals will not credit for the success of folks like Rush and Hannity is the MESSAGE. It's the big elephant (pun intended) in the living room.
The conservative message is upbeat, positive, encouraging, appreciative of individual incentive and persistence to solve problems.
The liberal message is doom and gloom, the world's going to hell in a handbasket, you can't do it yourself, you need our help, the government is the answer to all our problems. Who wants to listen to that drivel for hours on end??!!
Try to listen to that, sweetliberty, it was absolutely hysterical. Then at the end of "Daschle's radio show," there was this little song, saying something about "it seems like the hour-long show lasted for a year" or something like that. How did that go, Vinnie?
