Democracy Club
The first rule of democracy club is you have to talk about democracy club. No repeating slogans without understanding issues, no reinforcing falsehoods because you can’t be bothered to investigate the truth yourself and, most of all, no laying claim to your rights as an individual under the Constitution if you can’t also accept the responsibilities of individuals in participatory government. Democracy must be an ongoing public dialogue.

You Schmooze, You Lose
City Councilor Rosemary Romero wins the award for “most reasonable proposed ordinance” this summer. In a season that has seen suggestions for panhandling permits and bans against nudity and quasi-nudity, Romero’s proposed revamp of the city’s ethics code is stunning in its legislative relevance.

Televised Softball: Finally!
Maybe a journalist should moderate the next gubernatorial debate...
by Corey PeinNew Mexico gubernatorial candidates Diane Denish and Susana Martinez "debated" last night. That is to say, they exchanged empty talking points on television."Neither candidate is a brilliant debater," Heath Haussaman writes. He's nearly as polite as moderator Winston Brooks, who failed to elicit anything compelling from either Denish or Martinez.Watch the video at KNME. For best results, put your PJs on and sip on a glass of warm milk.Read SFR's recent coverage of the candidate's lackluster economic plans (here) and big money backers (here).
