You know CV, I once thought like you and I would've agreed with your sentiment at one time and I guess in most cases I still do, but if there is anything that I've learned from the past 13-14yrs closely observing politics and the psychological aspect of how people vote and why, I found a sad narrative that mandates the loudest voice gets the most attention.
All of the hate merchants(Rush, Beck, Palin et al) on the right do this and they have been able to push the country into near oblivion for arguably over 40yrs.
This is has been a lessoned learned by those of us on the left and MSNBC is a perfect example of the new fight we're bringing and so far, it has worked in our favor and we will continue until the country rights itself.
This Presidential election is going to be part of a major paradigm shift that's already in motion. The way this country sees it's politics has already begun to change from cynicism to activism and empowerment. I do this every day and I take the fight wherever I go through email, social websites, forums and in public and there are many like me now.
I can tell you that we are going for the long term and vow to never let this happen again…..
