3. The Dems didn't stand behind Kucinich- he's not allowed on.
But I Heard the repubs did stand up for Paul so he was included.

Pretty sucky, huh?

Richardson is on....but not Dennis.

There is no excuse for Dems allowing ABC to exclude him.

Really. None.

8. By Chuckie Gibson's own admission, ABC used fuzzy math
to justify including six 'Pukes but only 4 Democrats.

What it boils down to, is that Paul did much better in Iowa than 9u11ani did. So they would have had to exclude Rudy if they excluded Ron. And the neocons would never stand for Rudy being cut.
