Do you want a president who fights like hell for the 99%?

108. warren as president would have very similar obstruction, based in alternate reality

the left allows the right to create because it ignores talk radio. the left would not be 'getting' her back either, just as when we allowed those radio stations to create the buzz that enabled the republicans to block her appointment and make it politically impossible to pass her. i just heard van jones remembered as a 'commie' by a talk radio star. another one of their predictable and preventable victories.

there is no organized opposition to it except for the very effective if specialized and limited rush boycott. if the 'analysts' had been factoring in talk radio they may have polled to find out how big a factor the boycott activity was in creating that record gender gap for obama in the last election. an election that was actually looking close at some points. another election in which the 20% of americans who say they get their news from (unchallenged) talk radio helped advance a pack of loons and one more spoiled brat pirate 1% 'er to way to close to the white house.

we have incredibly low expectations because of it. and reinstating the FD would be impossible, like single payer, precisely because of rw radio's major part. people here will even add to the screaming of "free speech!" when the FD is mentioned.

maybe my cursing was a bit much, but the very same giant buzz machine almost kept warren out of the senate, against an asshat talk radio candidate like scott brown. just like so many other good candidates that they get to take free pot shots at all day long. there will be no fact based national and state level discussions about any major reform of candidates qualifications as long as the left continues to allow the right that major advantage. and that includes getting billionaires out of politics and reforming media.
