I share your disdain for the unthinking. I probably detest them more than you.
But consider this for a while: It's exactly that attitude that just cost you this election.
There are better ways to use the media to your advantage. This time around, you used them to telecast snobbery too overtly. And a real snob - boorish, but still one - just waltzed in, galvanized the rabble against you, and Cleaned Your Clock.
