Imagine net neutrality under McCain..
VP Sarah Palin would probably be tasked with 'overseeing' the conversion from today's net to the "new and improved"(sarc) corporate sanitized net.

I wonder if DU would even exist today had McCain/Palin won in '08. Righties aren't too fond of political activism on the net.

The new media that they can't control, for the time being anyway.

They want control.

Some may respond with- "But UY, this isn't what NN is all about."

My answer..

Bullshit. When it comes to righties, it's always about control.

1. Imagine ANYTHING under President McCain & VP Lady Blah Blah
IRAN, for example, would have been already bombed to Hell by now. Frightening!

2. He would probably think it has something to do with commercial fishing.
