Come on. I think the dims are a bunch of excrement bags myself, but allowing these fringe candidates the spotlight is bad for the process. True it will make the tier A candidates go further left which is good for our cause in the general but the likes of Kooky Kucinich demeans the process.

Breck Girl is too stupid to know he was being set up to take the fall for this.

I think you nailed it.

Hillary is comfortably ahead. She has a lesser chance of screwing up with less air time during debates. This was her tactic during her Senate campaigns --- say very little that can get you in touble.

There is no benefit to Hillary to reduce the field.

Watch her campaign air a 'clarification' statement where she makes Edwards the bad guy and she is in favor of open debates.

From the first comment on the NYT blog: Typically reader.

The Democrat who can stop chemically bombing women and children and shooting the Baghdad residents dead will be the nominee and the three out front have a long way to go. I want sanity, not an enless oil war shooting residents dead in the gutter and call them extremists. Insane greed. Only an arrogant Republican could chemically bomb a nation into rubble and then attack the survivors for not rebuilding the rubble fast enough just the way corporate America would like it. We have a lot of Republicans in the Democratic Party: Clinton, Lieberman, Hoyer, Nelson, Feinstein, Clyborn, Lambreaux, Reid, Durbin and many more spineless corporate robots. Clinton and Edwards lost my vote a long time ago. Edwards it talking about primary ed in Africa. Enough. America is shooting Baghdad residents dead in the face while racist maniacs discuss how long we need to keep murdering them to make us look better. INSANITY AMERICA. REVOLT!!

“...Richardson is exactly half Hispanic and half white...”

Hispanics come in all shades (skin tones) just like Americans.

What is a little disturbing here is they had this conversation right in front of the podium microphone. Public people like this are warned of these things by their own handlers all the time.

And these people are running for President of the United States?

Scary.
