If the liberal mantra was so appealing to the masses there
would be more liberal talk radio stations. The fact that there are
zero highly rated national liberal radio stations means either the
messengers or the message is not mainstream enough. Which is it?

That conservatives like you seem to be so proud that conservative talk
radio is successful is a mystery to me - you're deluded if you think
that somehow validates your politics. What it validates instead is
your ego.

Nobody is right or wrong here...this is a valid observation. I'm not
mentioning right-wing radio just because it's successful. I'm
mentioning it because that's all there is. As a Democrat, you and
Richard should be able to explain why it is that the liberal message
doesn't survive on air.

Because it's not needed. This has been explained. Republicans wouldn't
be in office without propaganda because they need to convince a lot of
people to vote against self interest. The liberals just need the facts.
Facts are boring, they don't need to be on talk radio 24/7. Lies and
propaganda do to be effective. The people who need this propaganda can
afford it and so they advertise on these stations.

Look, conservatives do have a talent for teaming up and having a win at
all cost groupthink mentality. Reality is a lot more complicated than
that, so liberals tend to get diffused in their message because it's not
something that can be distilled to such a simple purpose as "Get rich
people richer and screw everyone else!" So, the team mentality of the
conservatives lends itself to propaganda like talk radio, whereas
liberal issues tend to be dealt with on the real life level.

You don't need to be told how great the war is going if you look at the
facts! You don't need to be told what a great job the conservatives are
doing for you if you look at the facts. You know they are lies.
