In addition:

Has anyone done a definitive study on why listeners to conservative versus liberal shows is so lopsided?

Could it be that, without all the voter fraud, this country just may not be as evenly divided as we are led to believe??? (The figures on how many of us believe in God - 86% - should be a clue as well)

? Same as the inflated figures for the percentage of homosexuals?

Time for a candidate that will not worry about the gay or other lib issue voters - for every one of them they would alienate, they would gain 2+ on the other side.

very well could be an indicator of voter fraud

An even bigger indicator of voter fraud is how hard the Dems fight any sort of voter ID requirement.

I don't know if anyone has done this definitive study, but in my opinion, the most obvious answer is because television and the newspapers are so heavily dominated by the left, radio is the only medium where our opinions ever really get a fair airing. Limbaugh came in at a time when the vacuum was so large, it was begging to be filled by someone, and boy did he big time.

I remember saying at the time Air America was starting that it was doomed to fail, because the market for liberal opinion was already pretty well saturated in the media. Even on the radio, NPR had already been around quite a while to appeal to the mainstream left. Air America is designed to appeal to the ulra far-left MoveOn.org George Soros crowd who doesn't feel that NPR is liberal enough. And that crowd is a pretty small slice of America, and virtually nonexistent outside of San Francisco and the Boston to DC Beltway corridor.
