<![CDATA[Grist - Comment Feed for Noise, signal, and the presidential election]]> Grist Comment Feed en Comment #1 by Greta http://www.grist.org/article/a-thought-out-of-season/ Sun, 06 Jan 2008 07:45:38 -0800 http://www.grist.org/article/a-thought-out-of-season/1 You Get a Do-Over

Okay, Tom, I must call foul on this one.  

You know good and well that Grist readers/bloggers are perfectly capable of obsessing about more than one subject at a time.

Your argument is a bit akin to "there are children starving in Africa, so don't fret over your broken leg".

I appreciate the opinions of others (who I respect) regarding the presidential candidates.  The reason that the discussions are worthy of the bandwidth is that primaries and caucuses seem to matter.  Good candidates drop out of the race because of those showings.  So, I welcome the impressions and links from others to help me make an informed decision come primary and/or general election day.

[That being said, I live in Florida and have no idea who I will be allowed to even consider in the primaries.]

So, Tom, I believe that you owe Grist.com and few more 1s and 0s. (No hard feelings.)

Say David is wrong and the Iowa straw poll and the current media spin have not yet determined the candidates.  What do you think of Edwards?
