    Patrick2007....

    So far, MSM, the administration and the telcos have been quite successful at keeping news of the stalled, endangered Senate bill very low key. In the last week I've spoken to numerous people who aren't netroots, who are totally oblivious to what's going on with telcom amnesty (and are outraged and appalled when I describe it to them). If this gets aired out in some very visible court proceedings, can you picture both the marketing and regulatory disaster it could become for the telcos?

    I understand that Chris Dodd is to be the guest on Meet the Press tomorrow... for the whole hour. Should be interesting, and he'll undoubtedly discuss this issue.

    I don't usually watch MTP, since Huffington Post reviews it, but tomorrow I may make an exeption.
