they make no difference. Why? Because there are no lasting alliances with the media unless it is really your own side's house journat; like Rush Limbaugh's radio network if you are a Republican other than John McCain, and even that now is starting to change since they are being forced to accept him.

Drudge fights mostly for the other side - the Republican side and everybody knows it. He has done infinately more hit jobs on the Clinton's than anything helpful to either one of them. Since most of the major media in this country is right leaning, Democratic operatives have to negotiate the minefield of working with the media as it is, but Drudge has NO love of Democrats. Here he got the perfect chance to damage BOTH of our Presedential candidates while getting a lot of media attention for himself. Lucky him.
