Not to mention, here is what Murdoch, owner of the BH has as his goal - http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=433x454875

The fact is that he ignores that Brown is pretty ineffectual on talk shows - he is not knowledgeable and doesn't seem to do his homework. Kerry, on the other hand, is effective and he was one of Obama's best surrogates precisely because he can explain things well and convince people. Though some resent it here, Kerry won his LT GOV, first Senate and Presidential nomination without being the media favorite - by simply convincing more people. These people need to get over 2004 and take a look at who Kerry is and has been all his life.

One place to start is to listen to what he said on the Senate floor this week - http://www.c-spanvideo.org/videoLibrary/clip.php?appid=598830850 Then realize that his points here - other than the details from this year - are exactly what he was saying when he and Wellstone re- introduced Kerry's Campaign Finance bill that Wellstone co-sponsored with him. The relationship to what Kerry said that the BH jumped on - as Prosense's link shows, People like the Koch brothers are spending MANY TIMES the amount spent by the SBVT to LIE about the issues. Between the billions for lying ads and their "dree" media - FOX and the right wing talk radio and various RW papers, like Murdock's BH and NY Post. It should infuriate everyone that a RW Australian has so much influence in setting opinions.
