If I remember correctly, the political forum was closed during the Presidental election year. I think it just got too time consuming for the moderator and the adminstrator. The emotions and opinions of TOTV posters ran completely off the charts. All the negative ads run by both political parties tends to create negative opinion by the electorate IMHO.
Unfortunately, some people can't agree to disagree and then move on. We need more of the electorate and politicians who take more of a compromise and middle of the road approach. Dwight Eisenhower probably said it best. "I despise people who go to the gutter on either the right or the left and hurl rocks at those in the center.".
