So I can assume you are also reffering to Giuliani, McCain, Brownback, and Huckabee, who were invited, but did not attend the townhall sponsored by Lefty Moveon.org yesterday? Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards, Bill Richardson, Joe Biden, Chris Dodd and Dennis Kucinich all showed....:hmm:

I haven't even brought up the great large finger the candidates are giving the Congressional Black Caucus (the other sponser). If this isn't a big *******k Y*u to the leaders of the black community I don't know what is.

Nonsense. They all feel that a leading black institution was turning its back on its constituents by partnering with Fox News. Obama said so himself.

Townhalls are little more than beauty pagents. Nationally televised debates on the issues are a different story all together. What are these people afraid of?
By turning their backs, you mean challenging blacks to give up their victim status?
