The next political move: Alabama "Rainy Day Patriots" are going to take the fight to the enemy: the state-run media outlet, CNN.

Here is the e-mail from the Alabama Rainy Day Patriots. If I can, I will be there with them. Hope to see some Threeper flags there.

How 'bout "What Happened To The Fourth Estate?"

Might I suggest a good move for Rainy Day Patriots or, any Patriot for that matter, to compile a list of advertisers on CNN and write them saying as long as they advertise on CNN, you and yours will not patronize them. Enough of this and the advertisers will walk and CNN will crumble just like the newsrags have. They already have some of the worst ratings and pointing that out to advertisers may be to our advantage... Pile it on folks.

Follow the money...
