Atrios is right: tonight's debate rises to the level of political crimes against humanity, and fullthroated objection must be registered. Tell ABC that wasting 40 minutes of several million people's time on completely irrelevant figures like Ayers and near-irrelevant figures like Wright is unconscionable when a deeper discussion of things like education and health care is really merited.

The Dems must not let this recur. Especially in primaries, their policy should be to separate the running of the debate, and the televising of the debate. They should say to the networks: we run them, and you televise them, if you choose.
How hard can it be for the party to round up persons that Dems respect, to ask questions that matter to Dems?
