If you recall January 20, 2009 when president Obama was inaugurated and was being seen as invincible, that the Ancient Media (New York Times, CBS, CNN, NBC, Time magazine etc.) were portraying a nation gone left; a Republican party that was dead; that Republicans were just a bunch of angry, white Southern men; that the leftist majority finally had awakened etc. Even Newsweek magazine said on its cover ‘We Are All Socialists Now’

Yet today some estimates say that Republicans could gain as many as 13(!) seats in the United States Senate and more than 40 seats in the House of Representatives in the upcoming elections, giving the GOP majority control in both houses of Congress.

What a difference a year makes.

And all this happened because the manic-depressive Ancient Media were irrationally exuberant one year ago  declaring that Obama would transform the nation and that Obama would be Emperor for Life and the next bust on Mount Rushmore.

What a difference a year makes.

Indeed the Ancient Media told us that Obamacare was going to shower ‘free’ health care on all; that unions finally would take control of every workplace; that illegal immigrants would all become productive, taxpaying American citizens; and, oh yes, Chicago would be preparing in just 6 short years to host the summer Olympics because the Mighty Obama had seduced the International Olympic Committee with his boundless charm.

If only that were true. What a difference a year makes.

What happened?

Well, first, it’s not over. Because the same Ancient Media that were wrong about everything in the past year now are doubling down on their conventional wisdom with a new template like this: Yes, Republicans have won three huge elections since last fall, the governorships in New Jersey and Virginia, and the US Senate seat in Massachusetts.

The libs are holding onto one final straw, however, talking about the conservative candidate in the 23rd congressional district in New York state, Douglas Hoffman. They say he lost a seat to a Democrat that for decades had been Republican and that this is the really big story of the past year, that now it is conservatism that cannot really win.

If only it were so. Because they even have this one backward.

Look at the truth about that race. In NY-23, Douglas Hoffman ran on a conservative, third-party ticket, the ticket that usually gets 1% to 5% of the vote in any given election.

Not only did Hoffman then rise up with hardly any money or name recognition or organization and force the liberal Republican off the ticket, but then he got 46% of the total vote while his Democrat opponent got 49%. And this is the real story – not of conservative weakness, but of astounding conservative strength. He almost won a national election as a third-party candidate which is virtually unheard of. And Hoffman is expected to win that seat next November in a rematch.

And as the media continue to misrepresent that story and others like it across the nation, they are going to watch the Democrat majority in America slip through their fingers for the next 20 years.

Look at the way that Republican US senator Scott Brown of Massachusetts has been treated in the media after he won the seat held by Ted Kennedy for 47 years. Before the election Brown was dismissed without a prayer. And now that he has won, the Ancient Media say that Brown won only because he is a liberal,  because his opponent ran a lousy campaign, that it was a fluke etc.

What really happened, though, is that Brown ran specifically and strongly against Obama and he won. And this is the most frightening prospect of all for the Democrats and their media allies, that their invincible Emperor Obama has been exposed as having not only no coattails, but no clothes at all.

What the elections in Massachusetts, Virginia and New Jersey have proven is that the conservative movement is gaining strength, and is pulling the entire American discourse back toward the right where it belongs, and that Republicans of every stripe are going to win big in November including conservatives. This is something that the elite, know-it-all media deemed unthinkable just one year ago.

Now the media are taking on the National Tea Party Convention and Sarah Palin’s appearance there. One CNN commentator even falsely reported that Palin was going to accept a $100,000 speaking fee several days after it had been announced that she would not accept that fee.

This is the way the media are seeking every advantage – by conveniently ignoring the facts.

No, the Ancient Media continue to report that the Tea Partiers are just a bunch of fringe kooks, that they are going to hurt Republicans as much as Democrats, that the movement never will last, that the movement is fracturing.

This is nonsense and comes from the same media elites who declared the Republicans dead last year.

The Tea Parties are another barb in the conservative anchor that has sunk its teeth into the mind, body and spirit of the American electorate, holding firm to ideas and concepts that are necessary to taking America back from the brink of Obama socialism.

Without those firm policies that contradict Obama directly and without equivocation, candidates like Scott Brown might never have ventured boldly out. So not only are we going to see Republicans winning big this year, but more conservatives too, as well as the entire conservative ethos that powers it all. And that is the major story that the media are going to miss – and misreport wherever they possibly can.
