Poll question: Should our candidates boycott Faux new?
I am torn over the issue, on one hand it might highlight the fact that Faux it totally without merit. Then again it could cause more harm then good by making them seem like petty partisans.

1. No
They should go on there and point out Fox's lies. Show the morons like O'reilly and Hannity for the inbeciles they are.

6. Clark was great
In my opinion what he said was dead on, and he caught they guy trying to put words in his mouth. As soon as he was done the faux talking heads mad him out to be the irrational one.

3. Yes. They should boycott.
Those shows are entertainment, not news.

4. No, they need to get the viewpoints out there, and trash the FAUX people
like Clark did...
I think boycotting would backfire.

8. No, I love seeing Clark bat them down
He can do it with passion and poise at the same time. He savaged them and then smiled respectfully afterwards. :)

9. Yes ......... Ignore them entirely
It only serves to legitimize them and give them credibility. Not only that but it adds to the Faux Nitwit's viewership stats all at the Dems expense.

11. absolutely
Fox News should NOT be considered an impartial media outlet. Remember, they were the first one's to call Florida for Bush. They were in on the coup.

If I were Terry McAuliffe I'd never let a Dem set foot on a Fox News program.
