From the article on it:

Quote:

From NBC’s Domenico Montanaro and Mark Murray

As we mentioned yesterday, Clinton and Edwards were caught talking on an open mic after the NAACP forum. Parts of it were inaudible, but it turns out they were talking about how to exclude lower-tier candidates from future forums/debates.

Here’s what was said per the Associated Press (via Fox News microphones): “'We should try to have a more serious and a smaller group,’ Edwards said. Clinton agreed. ‘We've got to cut the number. ... They're not serious,’ she said, then thanked Obama and Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich as they walked by. Turning back to Edwards, she added that she thought their campaigns had already tried to limit the debates and ‘we've gotta get back to it.’”

I agree with them, not if they think Obama should be excluded but the debates do need to be more focused and Kucinich isn't really important.

Not a big surprise to me. Of course the "big guys" would want to push out the "little guys". Less competition for votes in the primaries.

I had to laugh at the sensationalized coverage of the fact that, oh my God, OBAMA USED NOTES! Holy sh*t, he's going down!

NOTES! OMG.

Wait, Obama can read?! Clearly not qualified to be President.

Hahaha

I don't get why taking note of important facts makes him unqualified to be president.

...oh wait.
