won't dare saying that the majority of Iranians do not demand socio-political freedoms, just because "Ahmadinejad won the elections":http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4621249.stm . To me it means two things:

1. Social inequality is a serious problem in Iran, for which Rafsanjani was heavily responsible. He was beaten by the outcome of his policies.

2. The reform movement can't reach beyond a certain population. They only have newspapers and Internet, with an approximate reach of five to seven millions. While the regime has a monopoly on TV and radio, the reformists can't even reach the majority of the middle-class, especially the youth, who are not into reading anymore, let alone the lower-class in rural areas.

On the other hand, satellite TVs which have a much wider reach than print and the Internet, are promoting exactly the opposite message of the reform, which has proved it only benefits the conservatives, especially during the elections, by creating an atmosphere of apathy. Until the reformists change this balance, they are doomed to loose the elections. They have to invest time and money in satellite TV channels etc. and try to decrease the wide-spread apathy, especially among the youth.
