There is another point missed and it has been documented when the money is followed. Their are a few people at the top funding these netroot sites and filter money through the verious networks. This is how they seem to have a singular voice and it seems to have a beehive mantality. What I enjoy about conservative blog sites is you can browse around and find degrees of acceptance and decent. This helps people form their own opinion and keeps it from being too much of an echo chamber. Take the tax issue as an example. There are people who believe in the Flat tax model and those that agree with the Fair Tax model and others who just want lower rates with in the Progressive rate model. But all agree on lower rates and less government.

I often wounder how the dems found success in labeling Republicans racist. Especially when you honestly look at the history of the GOP.
From the first Republican President elected (Abraham Lincoln) to the legislative Republicans that where instrumental against dem opposition in passing the Civil Right Bill that LBJ signed.
And the dems love to use Republican opposition to affirmative action as proof of racism (a reporters question to John McCain). But if you where to apply just a little honesty to the opposition you would see that it is anything but racist. In fact it accounts for people not to be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. You could even make the argument affirmative action promotes racism.
Like any minority (American Indian) I grow tired of the assumption that I should belong to a party whose ideology I completely reject simply because my skin color is not white. I also grow tired of being called racist because I disagree with a non white candidate political ideology. I for one am glad John McCain is fighting these untrue accusations.
