Feingold and Greenwald

This is one of the more interesting articles that I have read about Senator Feingold's bill to censure GWB.

The short version is that most Democratic voters support the censure and thus Feingold's popularity has increased even though the rest of the Democratic Senators are running for cover. It might be wise for more Democrats to jump on board because they will likely benefit from greater support from the 50% of the country who are "somewhat to very" inclined toward the left.

As you might imagine, I thoroughly enjoy reading blogs of all shapes, sizes, tongues, creeds, and viewpoints. However, those of the political vein limit their debates to cover only a tiny fraction of the political spectrum. Essentially, if it is not an issue that does not come up in the news, which further functions to limit the discourse, the bloggers rarely talk about it.

That said, blogs do allow anyone who has enough time and patience to articulate their ideas. Eventually, more people will gradually become more exposed to ideas that are outside of the so-called "mainstream." (Of course, I consider "mainstream" to be a term that some use to discredit a view that is inconsistent with the amalgamation of swill the Democrats and Republicans spew.) In the meantime, we can expect more of the same from both parties. In every election over the last 30 years, the same group of people benefits and neither party shows any sign of doing anything but continue that trend.
