>>>Journalism: The debate is over<<<


Those numbers are probably about right. That's how the media works. They go with what's fashionable and ratings productive for the moment and republicans right now only activate people's gag reflexes so smart journalists keep a safe distance. Not that democrats are all the rage, but for now.....even at 11%......they seem less toxic.

If there's an honest bone in your body you'll agree with this: The debate is NOT over. Look at a similar survey anytime between 2002 and 2005 and the figures are reversed.

While on the subject of conservative sleaze......hard to keep up with their erotic adventures these days so even though this one is fairly recent, it could be outdated by the time you read it.

Apparently the news about Larry Craig didn't make it to La Center. That's where Republican Rep. Richard Curtis lives. There's really no other way to figure out why Curtis thought he could call the cops, tell them every little detail of his sexual encounter with a man he picked up at an "erotic boutique," and expect the matter would be kept quiet. Craig, of course, thought that pleading guilty in Minneapolis would keep his alleged airport bathroom cruising quiet.
