And not just because they’re Democrats.But because six of the questioners during the Las Vegas “debate” were plants.
CNN Goes Green, By Gardening Plants
I have spent more than 12 hours researching the “random†questioners at the CNN Democratic Debate that was held on November 15th, 2007. I started out looking around, because there was a story about the first questioner, Catherine Jackson, who may have been a plant. As it turns out, she is an anti-war type, who has rallied against the war outside of Harry Reid’s office in Nevada. Harry Reid is one of the biggest supporters of surrender in Iraq, to this day denying the surge is working, among other things. The story came out about Catherine when someone recognized the name and discovered a news story of her interview during one of these protests.So I got to thinking, who is she, and who are the other people.
I looked up CNN’s transcripts of the debate, to find out who they are. At the same time, I paid attention to other blogs and news outlets, to find some mention of The Diamonds and Pearls girl, being Maria Luisa, and CNN made her ask her question. She said she felt stupid, because she wanted to ask a question about Yucca Mountain.

All six of CNN “undecided voters” were Democratic operatives
UPDATES BELOW – CNN hits bottom and digs: All six debate questioners appear to be Democratic Party operatives. So much for “ordinary people, undecided voters”. To paraphrase Junior Soprano, CNN is so far up the DNC’s hind end, Howard Dean can taste hair gel.
In a nutshell, CNN’s six “undecided voters” were:
A Democratic Party bigwig
An antiwar activist
A Union official
An Islamic leader
A Harry Reid staffer
A radical Chicano separatistWow. This looks “rather” like a scandal.
A commenter at Ross’ wants to deny that this is anything at all, though the person will not say that if Fox had done this for the Repubs that the leftosphere wouldn’t go straight-up apeshit about it.
Apparently now, not only can the Dems not face a question on live TV from Brit Hume of Fox News Corp, they don’t seen to even be able to answer one from an actual constituent that wasn’t planned in advance.
More when we know more.
