I'm going to edit one of your statements a bit here, Humbug
...to me, a resounding defeat of Obama Romney will be a devastating defeat for the media the GOP.

It will make them see that their unrelenting propaganda won’t continue to work and that they either need to become more balanced or else they’ll become more and more irrelevant. I’m not saying they’ll change overnight, it will take a while, but it is a necessary first step in my opinion.

Now there is the real picture imo.

You could be right, but it’s a huge gamble and the price the country would pay for such a defeat would be enormous. How much further left would the Supreme Court turn in another four years? How much more entrenched will socialism become? How much dangerous will the world grow and how much more vulnerable the US?

I would rather punch back at the Democrats and the media now, for who knows when (or if) we’ll get another chance. Especially if we let them continue to grow more powerful while letting ourselves become more fragmented. A Romney win may not advance conservatism but it may save the country from total disaster.

The alternative is too much of a gamble as i see it.
