I think that this stuff goes over the heads of the people who most need to be aware (independents, swing voters, people who aren't political junkies). I just have too many friends and family who are socially and economically moderate to liberal who just don't see these things the same way we do. I shouldn't have to spend near as much time as I do trying to straighten them out with a lot of this stuff and point out the spin. And if they are already more or less on my side and I have to do this, woe be the ones who may actually be more moderate or conservative but just as gullible or ill informed.
