In a way, I agree with Hunter over on Daily Kos, that Obama caving in to appear on a Fox News program is a mistake. On the other hand, I don't really care, and I think most people who vote don't really care. As bad as Fox News is, they're not THAT much worse than typical coverage on any of the other major networks, which says a lot more about how bad the traditional media is rather than how not-bad Fox is.
And not going on Fox sends signals to stupid wingnuts that Obama is somehow being held captive by the loony left and kept from appearing on a "rational, balanced" news network like Fox. Enough Republicans are willing to vote for Obama that I would like to see him actively court them. Let's transform the map and turn this into a 50-state election and rout those fucking wingnuts out of Congress.
And, as a proud member of the loony left, let me just say for the record that I vehemently, angrily oppose Obama conceding anything to Fox. If he does this, he's abandoning people like me!
There, I'm sure the wingnuts will like that.
