3. Agree. I don't read the candidate threads anymore unless there's a link
to an article, where there's an opportunity to read the article and discuss what was said about the candidate. Otherwise the rest of them are just shallow "cheerleading" or "trashing," done just to push an agenda.

It's so cluttered and reduced to "sound bytes" that it's like turning on the cables for news and finding newsflashing and scrolls on the bottom and flash pictures and split screens. It contributes to chaos of the mind.

Most of us thought it would get better with the new rules, but alas...it's getting worse.
