LOL..................the old media won the election for the Dems last time around. Ignoring the new media is not a conscious effort by many voters.........in reality, many of the Democrat voters do not READ news........ especially the "new media". They have NO PERIL in ignoring the new media.
The Old Media may have won one for the rats(as 60 of their candidates posed as conservative blue dogs) but they had to lie their asses off for 6 years to get the job done. "Bush lied, bush stole the elections, scooter libby, Tom Delay, etc etc.
We will do a better job next time you can be sure,but don't under estimate what we do here, it's a mistake.
