54. Nice try.
Limit it to 3 people to hedge your bets. I don't give a shit about those 3. One can handle himself, the other two either pander, or aren't forceful enough to drive the point home. I DO give a shit about 2 GOP senators having a debate about stem cell research on Meet The Press, as if that constitutes Today's version of partisan balance. One way to do that is to not invite Dems or liberals who have spines, and don't back down to the studios. You do not have to be Hillary or Obama to drive the Dem message.

Once again. It's not about those 3 or their access to CATV. It's the general narrative that Republicans are pure, vital, honorable, pristine and white as the driven snow, no matter what story comes up, and that Democrats are corrupt, selfish, cowardly, and have no ideas. This is the long term script they all stick to, no matter what damage the individual stories do to the right.

Rather than ask why not enough Dems are on TV, ask why Jerry Falwell is considered by CNN/MSNBC/FOX as an expert on gay people? Ask why Ann Coulter is famous at all?
