Two years of coverage, and we know all about Wright and Ayers, and all about Neiman-Marcus and Trooper Wooten, but we're all kind of wondering what these guys will actually do. We've heard lots of empty back and forth on socialism, but no discussion of real concerns about refundable tax credits (except here, of course!). The coverage is all junk food all the time, and consequently the candidates aren't forced to show their hands (and in fact are in a much better position if they play close to the vest). Love the Captcha - "Change Nov"! You’ve put your finger exactly on what makes me so mad about the coverage of the race.

You give me information and perspectives I can use as I wrestle with, not how I can make one party or even one candidate win, but rather how to come to grips with the issues facing my country and my world. Thanks. Alan -
