I don't know what it takes for people to get the picture. Dems dominate the war of ideas because they control the battlefields themselves; they control the infrastructure.
News media, entertainment media, public schools and universities, all dominated by Dems. If you're a Repub, you either don't get hired, or you keep a very low profile. Its pointless to complain about the media being biased toward the DNC when the fact is that the media is the DNC.
Until we face that and do something about it we are shouting from the bottom of a well. Let your enemy define the issues, define you, write the history, teach your kids, and then wonder why you can't win. You can't persuade anyone if they can't hear you, and they can't hear you if you're borrowing your enemy's microphone on his terms.
Just imagine a world where conservatives really had a level playing field. The left has the biggest megaphone and still repeatedly fails. Even before talk radio they had difficulty with their message. I’ve always said that conservatives need to provide an alternative. Not some kind of freakish alternative but simply an alternative that doesn’t trash the US at every turn that is openly patriotic and is profamily etc.
Look at NBC’s donor list:

Very well said.
