Styling an RSS Widget

I've been trying to solve this for hours. I have an RSS widget on my front page. I want to style every other line. There are so many classes and divs that lead up to the data:
Code:
<div id="front_page_widget_area" class="bfa_widget_area">
	<div id="rss-4" class="widget widget_rss">
	<div class="widget-title"><h3>
	 <a class='rsswidget' href='http://gruvr.com?city=greenville-nc-27834' title='7 performances within about 19 miles of Greenville Nc 27834 in the next 44 days , top  listed first'>Live Music in the Greenville, NC Area!</a>
</h3></div>
<ul><li>
<a class='rsswidget' href='http://gruvr.com/band/parmalee/Dec-31-10' title='Parmalee Greenville : ***All Shows Postponed Until Further Notice*** on 2010-12-31 [&hellip;]'>Fri Dec 31st: Parmalee at ***All Shows Postponed Until Further Notice***  Greenville</a>
<div class='rssSummary'>Parmalee Greenville : ***All Shows Postponed Until Further Notice*** on 2010-12-31 [&hellip;]</div></li>
<li>class='rssSummary'>Bimini Rd. Greenville :
I've tried quite a few combinations of divs and classes with the styling I want and added them to CSS/HTML inserts, but nothing works. What am I missing?

Sorry, I forgot: www.greenvilleconcerts.com and this is the last CSS I tried:


.rsswidget a { font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.0em; font-weight: bold; color: #003399; background-color: #FFFF99; }

No, that didn't work. I was keeping my fingers crossed though!

It's funny that the things I try in Expression Web 4 don't work. Seems to be a piece of the puzzle I am missing...

'a.rsswidget' did work on firefox for me.. perhaps not in all browsers

but lets make it more specific to give it a higher order in the css
think this should work:

Code:
div.widget_rss ul li a.rsswidget
