I have noticed a lot of what seems to be the MSM putting out a story that has been on the blogs for weeks.

It appears to me that, since media staffs have continually been cut lately, they look for the easy story by searching the net. They find something good on the blogs, use the idea as the seed for their story, change it so it can’t be attributed to any specific blog, and blam! instant story!

I guess there is nothing wrong with that, since they can get the opinions of many, many more people in shorter time with that method than going out in the real world and talking to people. Except that it doesn’t cover those that aren’t net-savy.

We’ve used Cox at three different houses in the last few years and found them to be pretty good and responsive. Good in-house support, good phone support.

Of course, we don’t watch a lot of TV. We do use a lot of internet, which is what would concern me if we went with a dish. I’m a speed freak and would not be happy with any reduction in upload or download speed.

That being said, Cox did do a biff recently in that they quit supporting a few types of cable modems – without notifying those customers that had them (they know what you have – whenever I call them they tell ME what I’m using). No problem, I thought, I’ll run down to Frys and get a new one.

Nope, they were completely sold out! Apparently Cox had screwed a lot of people that day.

I was surprised, since SD county has been red for as long as I’ve lived here. I was also surprised to see it had been blue as recently as 1984.

I would betcha that north county is still red.

Somebody commented on the article on the UT website and noted that the blue line isn’t trending up much long term, except in 2008 probably due to Obama.

The bigger story is how the red line has been steadily marching downward at a pretty good clip for years. That must mean other parties, and probably mostly Independents, have been making the biggest gains.

I believe I read somewhere that they used the money to start a business that failed.
