the "ballot bowl"-- cnn
wasn't online yesterday, so don't know if others commented. called cnn today to express my outrage over "ballot bowl", as though the election were nothing more than a silly sporting event. I don't watch any of the msm, including cnn, and that simply confirms my view.

how do others here feel about "ballot bowl 08"

4. It bothered me because this is exactly
how the repubs and Bush analyzed the current situations.

5. Yes, it bothered me too. It makes it sound like American Idol or something
Politics can be entertaining, but I don't think they should be considered entertainment.

What number did you call? I'll call too.
