Too bad because I think he's very electable. I can certainly
understand any reluctance on his part however, or anyone else's for
that matter. You almost have to be a bit insane to consider exposing
yourself to today's politics by mass media character assassination.
It doesn't bode well for the long term viability of our democracy in
my opinion.


It's amazing to me how much it has deteriorated in a somewhat short
period of time. Thinking back, Nixon vs Kennedy and up to Bush number
1 vs Clinton were reasonably civil and mutually respectful campaigns. I
think it turned south shortly thereafter.

I think the Internet and ability for many to express opinions and the
advent of politically biased cable TV networks have contributed greatly
to the decline of respectful political views and character assassination.





Can't even get a half dozen posters to behave decently *here* . You have
expectations for the country at large?


===

Define exactly what you mean by behaving decently. Would you like us
to overlook or ignore every outrageous statement that you make? Would
you like us to overlook or ignore every instance of your past
outrageous behavior? This is like a small town. If you wear out
your welcome it will never be forgotten.


I think he would like all of us to become like YKW, agree with everything he says and follow around
like a pup.



That reads like a perfect descriptor of the overzealous righties here
who want everyone to believe as they do on politics and follow their
doctrine like a pup and when they don't, why they'd better watch out.
I'm thankful the overzealous righties here and I disagree on just about
everything political. I'm also thankful all the righties here aren't
overzealous...just most of them.
