Not so. Conservatives (thus far) just suck at grassroots and activism. I’m not just talking about offline, but also online.

It’s interesting to note that the right owns talk radio, and the left owns the net. One reason is that old trope “ask three liberals, get 4 opinions”. The left loves to argue, most of all among themselves. This is why they excel at the net— it spawns content and many, many blogs.

The right has a more top-down approach and consequently owns talk radio.

It’ll be interesting to see how that changes now, given that the GOP is fracturing, many true conservatives are disgusted with the GOP, and the GOP leadership is in a shambles.

We’re really poised to see a big shift in the GOP and messaging, and it will be interesting to see what happens.

I would not agree. Interesting, yes, but conclusions here, well, no.
I don’t know that “The right has a more top-down approach and consequently owns talk radio.” Aren’t the radio hosts independently producing their shows & airilng their viewpoints? Why would they take talking points from “the right” or “the left”?
