Fox Wins

Starting with Edwards, or maybe with Obama's early fight over being called "Osama," the candidates are dropping out of the scheduled Nevada debate, citing Fox News's bias like it's something that just occurred to them.

I think this is foolish. Debating on Fox opens up the audience. Do the candidates really think Fox is going to film up their noses or run a squib commenting on their makeup and wardrobe? Now, predictably, Fox is calling them out for fearing to appear on any venue that won't present them favorably, and they all look as lame as GW does when he packs his audience with pro-Bush donors. And all the debates will be candidates preaching to the converted, while the uncertain watch "American Idol" and hear the candidates' opinions only as voiced by Fox newscasters. Just stupid.
