Yup, author is an idiot. As a guy who isn't going to vote for either major party, and who usually just turns to the news channels at the top of the hour since they're all turning pretty much to shiat anyway, I keep thinking that the refusal to debate on Fox, and the rush to do so on CNN sort of brands CNN as the old 'Clinton News Network' of relative liberality.
After all it was run/founded by a strange fellow who is as liberal as they get in a lot of ways, and the main 'star' is a pretty liberal Cooper. Do the Dems not want to reach Fox audience members? Is CNN as impartial as they want the public to think?

F*ck em all.

Idiot author...

Jef CNN isn't much better frankly. Have you even watched the Headline News Channel? Jesus.

I think the arrogant 'contempt and pity' attitude about the rightish Fox audience is what is going to cost the Dems the election AGAIN.

I sincerely hope the Dems get their shiat together. Whatever third party candidate I vote for will probably not win, and I don't think I can stand another term of the goddamned Republicans in office, so I sincerely hope they Dems actually get it together....

After they get their 8-12 years in, I guess it'll be time to switch.

Can't stand the thought of Hillary getting in there...it'll be a quarter century of Bush/Clinton and I don't think that's a healthy thing.

So Blathering Idjut figures that since we have a whine-tit spoiled shiat in office, may as well keep that level of discourse?

And why the fark wouldn't you wanna expand the party, the reach of its message and welcome others into it? Seems an awful lot like those kids who stop listening to a band because other people discover it. Don't want any of the uncool people polluting your party eh?

The Dem candidates don't need to reach the Democrats only, that's what they relied on last time. What they need to do, what both parties need to do, is reach Everyone.

I don't understand this whole attitude that all Republicans and Conservatives are idiots. Just don't get it. From Blathering Idjut, which seems more and more apropos we get a lot of elitist You're Liberal or Stewpid statements, which seems a bit pretentious. I happen to know some conservatives. And some liberals. The idiot factor, believe it or not, is about equal. The same level of intellect exists in the folks that believe either Bill O'Reilly or Jon Stewart are Journalists or Newsmen. I watch the Daily Show, except during election season, when it became all too obvious that Jon Stewart LOVES the taste of Democratic Party Butthole, and he is a COMEDIAN, not a newsman, and actually has a pretty loose grasp on the bigger picture. He is pithy and pretty funny though.


It is exactly this attitude, that the conservatives are nearly subhuman mouth breathing trogs that will keep the Dems from recruiting fresh blood, and getting the 'conservative' or just plain registered Republicans to switch sides for a vote or two. Same way the Republican party lost so much opportunity when it catered to the BibleThumpin' crowd and started screamin' about Hippie Commie Pinkos etc.

FWIW, the last time I voted for a major party was for the first term of Clinton. Liked his ideas on Medicine and College really. I wasn't a Democrat.
