5. agreed, they are winning issues
but you yourself just outlined why and how they get nuked. We have to win first, then change the mechanisms you just described (reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine? breakup of media monopolies?) Then we can start to have more honest dialogs and get some real progress. As it is now, we are getting hung on our own excellent policies. And it isn't just a matter of "fight". How many people who have advanced these excellent policies have been turned into laughingstocks?

Digby is by no means to be associated with the DLC. But he realizes we have to win first. There is no other first step.
