Very good article on of all places, The Daily Kos, explaining how a lot of Conservatives are graduates of the Progressive movement.
Progressives Will Never Win the Hearts and Minds of the American People
Progressives have an inherent disadvantage bringing people to their political point-of-view. The reason for this is very simple: A great majority of Conservatives / Libertarians are people over the age of 30, who were previously Progressives themselves. Most Progressives, on the other hand, are below the age of 30 and have not done their homework to learn what they are up against.
I know this to be the case because I was once one of those people.
As long as the majority of the media (CNN,ABC,NBC,CBS,Hollywood) are biased, progressives will have something better than hearts and minds, they will have the voice.
