Both zonerboy, GG and btk make sense.
In my view the political forum provided an opportunity to express oneself. However like both political parties a few pirated the forum and worse yet made it too personal. so as zonerboy aptly states why would an advertiser stand still for it.
On the other hand as you view the threads most readers gravitate toward the Zimmerman like threads. Now if only we can keep the fringe people out we can have a decent dialogue. How long will each thread last...well in my view they eventually extinguish themselves
When in the corporate world people employees would complain that so and so was wrong because.....my suggestion was to not attacked the person but to address the grievance as to what effect it would have on a department, etc...in other words keep it businesslike. So too with political issues keep them in the context as what benefit or concern it would have on the country, its citizens, etc
