Well, if we didn't have a Republican administration, there might be some 
hope that the FCC might hold an inquiry about whether Clear Channel is fit 
to be a licensee.  The thing about such a large company is that an FCC 
decision that they are unfit to hold a radio license can result in some 
massive shutdowns or divestitures.

And, if we didn't have a Republican administration, there might be some 
hope of the Justice Department investigating for anti-trust violations.

Maybe the overpowering odor of this company will reach a few members of 
Congress.  And maybe the Democrats will take over Congress in the next 
election.
