Net Neutrality Proponents Get Slaughtered in Mid-Terms

By james_fudge

Conservative web site, The Daily Caller points out that just about every signatory on the "Net Neutrality Pledge" fronted by the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (released 5 days before the mid-term election) lost their bids for the House and Senate.

Some of the names on this promise to fight for net neutrality included Senate hopefuls Alexi Giannoulias (D-Ill.), Joe Sestak (D-Penn.), and Paul Hodes (D-N.H.).

Many House hopefuls also failed to win their bids on November 2 including Bill Hedrick (CA_48), Kevin Bradley (CO_05), and Jerry Campbell (Ml_04). In a word, a bloodbath.
