The Man from Silver Mountain thinks you're out of touch:
I think your readers are out of touch with reality. nearly 2/3 of them think Rather will step down this year. They also think he's more likely to step down in the next week (or so) than to survive into 2006. That is nuts.
CBS has suffered from this episode where their obvious bias has been spotlighted and it will cost them in terms of viewership and $, but they will not fire Dan over it, which is a shame. They simply don't have an heir apparent. All their guys are old. The only CBS newscaster I can name under the age of fifty-five is Julie Chen. They will need to start grooming someone now just to have them ready in 2006.
The only way they get rid of Dan is if they get caught red-handed publishing another fabrication. This isn't likely, at least in the near future. All eyes are on them and they will need to be very careful. My guess is that if they do dig up dirt against W, that they won't let Dan anywhere near it and they will authenticate it thoroughly.
Looking for an heir apparent eh? How about this mug?
Craig Westover thinks we should praise Jesse, not bury him:
Everyone should have the opportunity to vote. Not everyone should. Democracy works when the people that vote understand the issues and the consequences of their votes.
By that standard, I submit that Jess Ventura choosing not to vote is an act of patriotism.
Don't get me started on who should or shouldn't vote. Let's just say that Craig is right on this one. All in all, Jesse not voting is probably a very good thing.
