There is an old cliche that the score of a game can be deceiving. In the case of the House vote on Net Neutrality Thursday night, that cliche doesn't work. The 269-152 vote is as bad as it looks.

But another cliche says it ain't over until it's over. And it ain't over.


Of course, if 'net neutrality IS doomed, then say hello to new telcoms run by the big 'net players. Google, for example, uses so much bandwidth that it has been considering setting up its own system anyway.
