Real Presidential Debates? As if!

The Washington Post opposes real debates. They want the debates modeled on American fucking Idol!

Undernews - [The Washington Post, which can't stand things getting out of its control, produced this editorial on the recent presidential debates, an editorial that neatly ignores the fact that Gravel and Kucinich best represented the views of a majority of Americans on Iraq and that Ron Paul was the most interesting person in the GOP lineup. Leaving aside the perverse anti-democratic presumption that candidates should be judged by how much money they raised, debates are not polls. They are, for want of a better term, debates and the last thing one wants in a debate is three or four people all trying to say the same thing better than the others. The minute you get a Gravel, Paul or Perot into the debate, the discussion becomes real, which, of course, this is precisely what the Washington Post doesn't want]
