And isn't it interesting how the reverse isn't true?
How, when Democrats lose elections, when it's Republicans in power, when it's a Bush administration, Democratic ideology and policies never get discussed and the narrative then becomes "Elections have consequences" and "Presidents are entitled to their nominees".
The media is a willing accomplice, and helps to rig this situation where the People are always going to lose.
The media refuses to do investigations and vetting of candidates on its own. The media covers politics and government as sporting events, like Howard Cosell calling a boxing match. The media's preferred role is to only cover the conflict. So why isn't the media covering the conflict within the Democratic Party? Why is it "the Tea Party vs. the Republicans in Congress against Obama and the Democratic Party" and not also, "Obama and the DLC-controlled Democrats in Congress versus the base of the Democratic Party"?
