PS---For non-boring debate coverage Thursday night (and Super Tuesday coverage next week), check out www.theyoungturks.com and or http://bravenewfilms.org/network . They will be simulcasting awesome progressive coverage with TYT and other co-hosts (in the past it's been Wes Clark Jr, Christy Harvey of MicCheckRadio.org and more). If you watch at BraveNewFilms there are some cool features such as live blogging, live polling (of viewers) and a live chat. And as always, they have awesome progressive guests, ranging from Sam Seder to people from DFA, Media Matters, Firedoglake, Campaign For America's Future, The Nation and many, many more.

Seriously though, just watching the entire debate/election coverage through the TV Talking heads commentary is also a questionable prospect (I doubt they'll be especially honest, insightful or funny). Even the NPR coverage, while more informative, can be dry and boring. And the TYT/BNF coverage gives you up to date poll results on election days because they can see what ALL of the networks are saying rather than just *one* network you would normally watch.

The New Hampshire coverage reached over 50,000 viewers, so clearly people are responding to this new format. Support progressive programming if you really are tired of the mainstream media!

3. Doesn't This Just Add
to the idea that while they ALL do this to *some* extent, Romney has raised the bar for pandering? He really is especially slimy.

4. I'm Irish, Scottish and German, and I'M BLACKER than MITT ROMNEY!!!
He's an idiot, and being from MA, i have had an up close view.

He and his sons, all of whom are so rich they can take the whole YEAR off to take a bus ride around the country trying to get daddy elected president are shameless. He will and has SAY/SAID ANYTHING TO GET MORE POWER.

I don't think this is the same "bus riding" most of black America can relate to.
If Mitt or his sons ever had to take public transportation as the last ride out of HELL, I don't think they would even know HOW to.

But that is just my opinion.
