Excellent comments, but one needs an understanding of history to digest them, something that is sorely lacking in America today....
We failed to accept that we live in a Media-driven world now, where re-runs of Survivor get higher ratings than the Evening News shows, no matter how biased they may be.
We assumed that The Sheeple had the intelligence to sift through the 24/7 drip,drip,drip, of Lies, hatred and exaggerations, and that they would make the right choice, without having to counter each ever more outrageous claim directly.
We assumed that a country that ignores the rivers of blood flowing in it's own Dem-controlled inner-city streets, would "get" why the struggle of less than 1% of the population actively involved in The War on Terror is vital to them.
We failed to take the on the Media War against America, and instead gave the initiative to our enemies and the American Left, who were obviously willing to sell out our nation for short-term political gains, seeing it as their ticket to return to power...
(See the Rockefeller Memo)
In short, we bet on the Intelligence of the American People to make a good decision. History will decide if they have, but will their be any of us left to analyze the result?
