Oh, I'm not saying it wasn't there; I was only providing my interpretation of Steve's comments.

In my experience, the party in power tends to make less noise than the one that isn't; wait four-to-eight years for the power to shift, and notice that, during that time, as one side wanes, they get louder as they get weaker. It's cyclic. The Dems are falling out of favor, so they're making more noise.

It wasn't Democrats that made Rush Limbaugh popular in the Clinton 90's, just like it wasn't Republicans that did the same for Olbermann in the Bush 00's.
