Thank you for the book recommendation - I'll put it on my 'pick this one up' list.

Your point about many people voting Republicans out, or "sitting on their hands" from a misguided belief that we have a one-party-corruption problem is a good one, and you're right that those who get all of their news and views from MSM (or worse: I was both stunned and amused by the interesting statistics, 1998 I think, that 65% approved of President Clinton's performance, and 65% got most of their political views from late night comics) will be likely to toss out the baby and keep the bathwater.
