[BC] Station Positioning

[Mike McCarthy]

To extend that....

Vote for the crook who you already know and expect being screwed one way, 
than to vote for the crook with the unknown agenda....and might really 
screw you more.  Lesser of the two evils. There is some comfort that at 
least you know what the deal is with the incumbent.  Doesn't make it any 
better, but at least that's the reality you know...ala keep the KY around.

With the idea the Newt was pushing, I can see all the lobbyists turning the 
local district media to run their slime ball negative issue ads when the 
pols are in town doing fundraisers.  (Newt is pushing to have Washington 
based specific person fundraisers banned and to require all political 
fundraisers be done in the local district for that representative or 
senator.  While Newt is OTL on many things, I agree with him there.  Would 
make for some nice bumps in radio ads in possibly dull months.)

And we wonder why the best and brightest avoid politics and stay in the 
private sector.
