Cheat Sheet
Dave points out the excellent table on CNN with JUST THE FACTS, M'AM from the yesterday's primary results. When political blogging and political journalism can be fact-based like this, then you're looking at something valuable. I need "cheat sheets" to help me cram for "the exam" -- voting. The web is made for this. I want journalists to provide this kind of information for the public -- set up a page for each candidate with bullet points on-- Health Care
-- War
-- Economy
-- Education
-- Women's Issues
-- Gay Issues
-- Senior's Issues
-- Minority Issues
and pack it full of information. It would be especially useful for it to have quotes and links with DATES to public statements candidates have made about a given issue, and then another link to a contradictory statement they made more recently. Sidebars with voting records, etc. That would be good information.
I'm sick of all the horse race reporting. It's not about that.
