I think it's the combination of the internet (and sites like kos) that have saved our collective fannies. Also, Air America Radio now provides an alternative point of view, just as NPR was going down the toilet and becoming totally mainstream (i.e., selling their soul for $$$$, money they "needed" to operate---BS--more like money to feather their nests with). Anyways, I digress. The point is that we liberals are bouncing back, and what is the reason for it? Tell us what YOU think!
