It's not that conserative media is well-received by the American public, it's because because, generally, conservatives are more educated and interested in things political.

In other words, people who are inclined to be informed about current events are generally conservative. It's why Fox News is dominating cable news. It's why conservative talk radio dominates over liberal radio. And it's why conservative books dominate the current events book market.

Unfortunately, there are large portions of the population who are inclined to be uninformed. And it is for those people that the Daschle soundbite is targeted. That Clinton appealed to. And that Terry McAuliff calls his own.

Sometimes I wish I had born 150 miles east of here.

I just picked up Barbara Olson's "The Final Days". Started reading it late last night and my blood is still boiling. These two, white trash losers constantly infuriate me. My outrage at their "antics" will never end.

Come to think of it, the top-selling newspaper in New Hampshire is the conservative Union Leader. How about that?

I used to read that paper every morning before school when I was a kid... it certainly explains a lot ;0)

America Online, the family-oriented Internet service provider run by conservative Steve Case, ....

Those of you who have AOL, though, will probably see that the news stories headlined on their Main Menu are still taken from the left-leaning publications, and retain their leftward slant.

... "Shadow Warriors" by Tom Clancy.

I've not read Shadow Warriors, and of the Clancy books I have read, I have seen what would seem more like a conservative slant -- but that's his fiction. When I listen to Clancy in interviews, he sure gives me the impression of a liberal.

You don't need to read a book to be a left-liberal. You just need to "care".

[DouglasKC]

The reason for this is obvious: conservatives read, liberals don't.

Hehehe ... me too

Amazing what happens when they publish good books .. people will actually buy them ..

These facts give lie to the manufactured image of liberal success. Liberals are, and have always been, a minority. In the marketplace, the office, the halls of power, and especially on the streets, conservatives rule in numbers. That domination by the socialist minority is part of what makes liberal rule so offensive.

But conservatives are finding their voice. Free Republic is one example of many. And the voice is rising, from a rumble to a roar. God have mercy on the liberals if that roar ever blends to a unified chorus.

[Reagan Man]

Bernie Goldberg, who wrote "Bias", is no conservative, he is a self-professed liberal. Bill O'Reilly isn't a conservative, he's a populist independent. Let's emphasize the credentials of Edmund Morris and David McCullough. Neither men have ever been members of the conservative movement. And this is the first time someone has ever referred to Steve Case, as a conservative. The USA Today, a moderate publication? Yea right.

Hmmm?

For what it's worth, I think the year's best philosophical defense of social conservatism is Robert P. George's The Clash of Orthodoxies

Alas, not as popular as it deserves to be, though it has cracked the Amazon top 1000 a few times.

[Servant of the Nine]

Most Democrats can't read without moving their lips and they don't follow the news.

Unfortunately they vote and breed promiscuously.
