[Vision2020] Bain Capital = Conservative Talk Radio: Limbaugh, Hannity, Glenn Beck

Don't worry, only ignorant bigots believe what comes out of the mouths of Limbaugh, Hannity, and Glenn Beck. Newt can always appeal to the other half of the Republican base. 
 
Newt might also try during their broadcasts waving a bright shiny object to distract their followers away. Obviously, it doesn't take much to captivate them. 
 
You can tell I am really pulling for Newt to win the nomination, but most likely not for the same reasons as Republicans.  I like to watch Romney act like a caught fish on the deck of a ship; flipping back and forth from the right and then to the left hoping to some how desperately get out of his grim situation. He is probably slimy enough to do so. Where back in the political sea battled and bruised, Obama will gobble him up.

Hi:

Here are articles online that show how Bain Capital and Clear
Channel are the money behind the biggest conservative talk show
hosts in America.  Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck and others paid by Clear
Channel and Bain Capital have supported Romney's candidacy and have
smeared Gingrich for months.  Newt is not getting a fair
opportunity on conservative talk radio, and Bain/Clear Channel is
the reason why.  The conservative talk radio "paid bias" against
Newt is affecting the GOP nomination process this year.

There are two types of radio markets in America these days:
1) Big corporate-owned radio stations with syndicated programming
2) Regional radio shows produced at a more local level

Florida radio talk show host, Shawna Vercher, has recently
published this article about the connection between Bain, Ronney,
Clear Channel and conservative talk radio:

"Are Republicans going to let Bain buy the nomination?"
http://www.newstalkflorida.com/are-republicans-going-to-let-bain-
buy-the-nomination/

No wonder Limbaugh and the conservative establishment wanted Newt
to stop talking about Bain: They were afraid that he would uncover
the whole truth about Bain's connection to the 850 radio stations
broadcasting the anti-Newt message coming out of conservative talk
shows.

Suggested talking points:

1) Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity both received syndication
contract renewals through Clear Channel before the 2008
presidential race to subtly keep Romney away from scrutiny on the
airwaves.

Hannity's syndication deal (June 2008):

three-way.html

Limbaugh's $400 million syndication deal (2008):

2) Bain Capital purchased Clear Channel in November 2006, shortly
before the 2008 election, to control the political content on over
800 radio stations nationwide.

Bain listed as co-owner of Clear Channel:

3) Mitt Romney has continued involvement with Clear Channel through
Bain.

and-clear-channel/

4) Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck have all smeared Newt for bringing up
Romney's Bain Capital past.  They wanted Newt to back off from the
bigger problem that Bain and conservative talk show hosts are
connected financially.


5) In the 2012 race for the presidency, Bain and Clear Channel have
created what they think is an impenetrable wall of misinformation
by controlling the message coming out of conservative talk radio.
Since most conservatives listen to Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck every
day, Bain and Romney know that controlling the message on the
airwaves is the best way to control information from trusted
conservative news sources.  It is an unfair, dishonest and
underhanded advantage that Bain and Clear Channel have been
planning for over five years.

him-from-criticizing-romney

6) Unless Newt finds a way to expose the Bain connection to
conservative talk radio, he will not win the nomination.  Florida
is THE best place to bring this story into the national spotlight.


Here's the big question: How can the Gingrich campaign expose the
Bain-Clear Channel connection without having Newt take the heat for
exposing the truth?  Millions of conservative Americans listen to
Bain's silent message on conservative talk radio: "Only Mitt Romney
is acceptable as the GOP presidential nominee."

My feeling is that Newt needs to find some way to bring out this
issue now.  He could say that it is another example of how the
media is controlled by the elite establishment.  There is so much
evidence already on the internet to back him up.

Thank you.
