The Nevada Fox News Debate

John Edwards yesterday became the first candidate to announce he would not attend a debate sponsored by Fox News and the Democratic Party in Nevada.

This scheduled debate has caused a large dustup in the online liberal community due to Fox News' record of distorting Democratic positions and outright disrespect of Democrats. For whatever reason, the Nevada Democratic Party decided to let Fox host and run a debate. Many, including myself, see no positive outcome out of a debate framed and run by what is clearly a Republican propaganda wing. Hopefully Edwards will not be the last candidate to back out of this ill conceived plan.

Well, at least we know that Edwards is a smart one. I couldn't agree more with you!
