I am the OP of this thread, and if anyone will read my OP, you can see that there was NOTHING partisan in it. It was an idea given to me by a political scientist to keep track of what candidates say about each other BEFORE each party finally chooses a candidate, as those comments will disappear under the rug by then. That was all I was passing on. This point gets more and more relevant as the primary season continues. Can ANYONE address a non-partisan suggestion about a political process without becoming partisan themselves--and without deteriorating into insults and name calling?
