place to post candidate threads. Why don't more DUers remember this?

I FERVENTLY wish that all candidate threads would be confined to GD-P. I realize that there will always be some grey areas -- for example; threads about how the corporate media skews the campaigns, and such -- but as I recall, there were some fairly good guidelines in 2004 and they worked fairly well.

I suppose it's more difficult now, since there's been such a free-for-all going on for so long, but I sure would love to see the separation that was enforced in 2004.
