My suggestion to the remaining Democratic office holders .
Keep your asses off of Faux news. Allowing Faux to interveiw you only serves to falsely legitimize Faux. Why would any Democrat want to get on faux and be a punching bag for their biased reporters. Blackout Faux now. This will be the first positive step in regaining our foothold in american politics. Leave them to cover their own. Yes I know they still will rundown the Democrats but they are more or less preaching to the choir anyhow. Typical Faux interveiw with 2 U.S. senators, Republican gets softball questions and is agreed with by Faux reporter. Democratic gets very hard hitting questions and challenged by reporter. Then after interview reporter and anchor tag team Democrat. How in the hell does doing an interview for a conservitive audience where you know the Democrat will be attacked help our cause?

Democrats, listen up preach to your own chior. give interviews to objective news organizations. Don't be whipping boys for conservitives. Play by your rules not their rules. If they don't like it fuck'em.

1. I agree with you wholeheartedly
But our democratic leaders and consultants always will ignore our pleas and do as they like. I guess the snobbishness with which they treat us is also the same way the general populace sees them (our leaders and politicians) as treating them.
When you ignore your own base, how do you expect the general populace accept that you will listen and/or empathize with them?
