I'm not in agre...I guess I disagree with this. I'm not in agreement with either side of the discussion, but I think they do a good job of thinking through some issues and controversies. Ultimately, this isn't a discussion directed towards some mythical 'silent majority' (why are we operating in the vocabulary of Nixon and Agnew,anyways?), but is in dialogue with a whole set of conversations going on between organizers, thinking through questions of tactics and strategies. The questions being posed are focused on asking how to get folks involved, how to keep the movement going, etc.<br /> To be honest, I'm not sure why you need to 'identify' with the panelists. I also find your comments about the crowd confusing. Some folks say some smart stuff, but some of it was conspiracy theory nonsense, and other unproductive material.robert woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14467035173491589640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6301538619639403161.post-27706246288478074152011-11-08T13:37:30.288-08:002011-11-08T13:37:30.288-08:00It's really disheartening.

I wish I could have identified with more in these people. <br /><br />And it's really sad that the audience is so much smarter and clearer than most of the panelists.<br /><br />These people are for the most part quite disconnected from that part of the silent majority who actually wants to hear them speak.<br /><br />Sorry to be a downer, it's just sad.Marcusnoreply@blogger.com
