21. Interestingly, both the S.F. Chronicle and the L.A. Times, the state's

two biggest papers, had really good, and lengthy, investigative articles on the matter, but it just never caught on with the electorate, and the Democratic Party failed (perhaps some were in Enron's pocket?) to pound the issue enough to keep it front and center.

Part of it, is that there was never anything on television about it. People these days want their news in 5-minute TV and radio bites, and aren't sitting down to read ten paragraphs of a three-part series on a subject. I would bet that not 20% of Californians have any inkling of the extent of the crimes thatwere committed against them by Bush/Cheney/Enron. I've been working this issue for three years, and have written hundreds of letters, and made hundreds of phone calls, and no one seems to give a shit. They must LIKE getting screwed!

Ignorance is bliss..... Don't bother me, Hollywood Squares in on!
