The outrage about Fox News hosting a Democratic debate has made front page here a few times lately. Well, here's a question for you.....what candidates would be willing, to make an appearance at YearlyKOS? Hillary? Obama? Kucinich? This site, in recent weeks, has become a radio active dumping ground. More ranting below....
What are the numbers here now? 120,000--125,000. Well, if it was graphed, I believe we'd see a direct correlation between the rise in numbers and the decline of intellectual conversation. Talk about Fox News---if it's not sensationalism, it's not on the recommended list.
What's more, if you were an elected official and you or your staff were watching what was happening here, the message back has to be---stay clear. They can't be associated with this crap. In order to when elections, the candidates have to stay a little more mainstream than many here would like. Well, you know what? THEY want to win elections. That premise seems to have vanished here and it's really disappointing.
I'm local; I was really looking forward to YEARLYKOS and the prospect that we'd get some of the players to show and really talk about their agenda, getting us involved, etc. It ain't happenin'. Just like Fox News, it will be status non gratus.
I don't want a table for one---I want everyone at the table and then let the best man or woman win it. Are all of you still in it for the right reasons? Remember what this site is SUPPOSED to be about before you post some sensationalist piece just to get a few 4's thrown your way. Being a TU here, won't get you far in the world.
