US net neutrality fight

[rcjordan]

Obama just weighed in on the populist side. This issue is, IMO, a big deal relative to the country's competitive edge. But I also think he's picked it as a way to put the GOP to the test. The only entities more reviled than politicians are cell & cable networks.  It will be interesting to see how the lobbyists respond now.
