4. CNN has truly turned into a joke....
it's no longer the place for news....it's the place for he said vs. she said politics (and witches of course).

5. Because nothing significant EVER happens west of the Rockies?
Because the California debate was on too late for the east coast? Because we're not considered newsworthy enough? Because Christine's better looking than Meg? Or because the big cable news organizations are based in the east and we're just too far away to bother with - unless there's an awards show going on?

Sometimes I think the entire state could vanish and no one in the east coast media establishment would notice until they needed to run a "Ha, ha, aren't those Californians funny?" story.

9. Because they are in the entertainment business
and aside from Palin, there ain't no more entertaining "politician" than O'Donnell? I know they're supposed to be a news outlet but I think they gave up even the pretense a while ago.

10. That is correct. The California debate was not entertaining.
Watched that one out of duty. Wish I could have seen the Delaware yucks.

11. It has to be on the tubz somewhere
The whore debate portion of the California one was mildly amusing. Great Goddess, that woman is sanctimonious.
