I was reading through the most “popular” question to ask the Democratic candidates in tonight’s debate from co-sponsor, Politico.com. Out of the top twenty-five questions, twenty involve space exploration. Now, I agree that space exploration is important. And I’m pretty sure that someone was either gaming Politico’s voting system and/or cares very passionately about outer space. I’m also confident that tonight’s debate moderators will not be firing off constant questions about space. That being said, this is a time for serious people and I’m just thankful that a question about post-Katrina New Orleans is at the top of the list, even though there’s not a single question about the War in Iraq. But really, just a bang-up job in making Internet political sites look serious about the issues.
