37. If the dam hasn't broken yet, then there is no reason to expect it will.
Remember they still haven't gotten all the news media under the thumb of their Big Liars.

Very little media consolidation has happened because of the recession.

Next up will be big tax breaks to media consolidators most likely.

Of course there is one man in the country that will have his finger on whether any media consolidation will happen and that will be Michael Powell.

.

The deal that they passed over 97% disapproval rating a couple years ago puts the FCC in charge of approving media buyouts. There is one Democrat, one Republican and Michael. So guess who's opinion is going to count.

Perfect. Wellcome to der 5th Reich

And may I say Fuck Michael Powell.

We need to take the mixed boards back from the hoards of mindless paid right wing Big Lie crews.

We need to take the news and arguments we get here and spread it around daily!

That's what we didn't do this time and what we need to do.

We outspent the Republicans. We had a massive "get out the vote" effort. We were energized up the wazoo.

But we didn't match the right wing's massive mixed message board front.

All bloggers should helping themselves to traffic by going to the mixed boards and leaving arguments and links.

We need to spread the smarts around, not just hide because there is no hiding anymore.
