More transparency and honesty definitely seems to be the way forward instead of negative point scoring. But I think this might be a bridge too far for most politicians. Its a shame because abandoning spin would be a great way of reinvigorating interest in politics and gaining people's trust. Unfortunately, in the sometimes murky world of politics they have too much to hide. Matt. Thanks for the Digg Walter.

And the din of battle can be terrifyingly loud. WGB Well said, Matt. I’ve “digged” it. My take is that there is just too much noise out there for anyone to listen.
