All the pundits in the world can only deliver a single vote - their own
Edited on Sun Nov-12-06 07:00 PM by Phoebe Loosinhouse
Oh sure, they can predict, they can prognosticate, they can lecture, they can spin, they can obfuscate, they can categorize, they can extemporize, they can extrapolate, they can isolate, they can demonize, they can polarize, they can editorialize, but they cannot control what a single American chooses to do with their vote.

There is one real pundit for the American people - their own conscience.

1. time for new talking heads
we need fresh faces to reflect the new America. When the GOP became empowered, it was relected with the start of all the RW hate radio, beginning of FOX News, and of all the RW bloviating that has passed for political discourse for so long.
Time for fresh faces, and ideas, there are so many talented and intelligent people out there. Think of all the talent on the internet alone. Media executives: Don't you think it's time to become a mirror of the nation?

2. Great point. How long can we be forced to sit through the withered remnants
of the Old Media? I don't give a flying !@#$ what Cokie and George Will and the other old trouts have to say about much of anything. They know what side their bread is buttered on, and it frankly can't hold any more butter.
