Hardly a news flash, but:
Last week I was talking to my Mom and I mentioned something about Dodd being awesome again, and she said, “That’s nice, but how am I supposed to know anything about him?” WHAT?!? “You can go to his very informative website, read, and watch videos!!!” I couldn’t believe it. “But nobody knows who he is!” “SO READ HIS SITE. Then you can tell your friends that you’re really impressed and tell THEM to read the site.”
The media so completely destroys the politically competent because people are too busy with their own obvious concerns. Politics should be an obvious concern, but it barely registers for most people, or I think Dodd would be doing much better. Fighting the republicans is hard as hell even when they serve up their own disaster on a platter, but fighting for a media that does what it’s supposed to do looks even harder. We watch CNN every morning just so we can see how even non-FOX mainstream distorts everything, and generally ignores the most important stories. We leave the house fuming every day.
