  You do realize that if Washington is already regulating it, you're in trouble.. Right??

  Demonstrably false. I'll keep my example simple, so you can look out your window and maybe understand it: Your local/municipal gov't regulates where and how many billboards can be placed around your town. Without those regs, everything would be covered in billboards. You'd be in "trouble" without those regs.

  The more regulated the internet becomes, the more power that goes to the lobbyists and special interest.

  The less regulated the internet becomes, the more power goes directly to the corporations behind the lobbyists and special interests. At least with the gov't you have a (small but non-zero, theoretical) chance of voting them out.

  Those who have the money to lobby congress will do it in the most capitalistic way to get what they desire.

  Those who have the money and are not restricted by regulations will do whatever they want to whomever they want whenever they want to get what they desire. At least if they have to lobby someone it slows them down a little.

  Seriously, you keep talking about corporations and their special interests gaining power by lobbying the gov't, and your "solution" is to make it so they don't even have to bother lobbying? WTF?
