I've never seen the College Democrats publish a press release or hold any real events except in an election year. And Campus Conservatives is the most active political RSO hence all the coverage.

And they get all butt hurt if you call them out and will just erase comments that hurt their feelings. A lot things are wrong with this paper and tend to be very one sided.

After all this time coddling them and Dennis - while offering almost nothing about the goings-on of the College Democrats - someone working for this paper has finally decided that giving the right wing unmitigated free press is not the best thing to do! Now I hope CM Life will give the same press to the College Democrats as they give the right-wing groups. Failure to do so would constitute bias and make them worthy of a boycott. The ball is in CM Life's Court. It’s about time the Campus Conservatives are called out in this paper!!

So what if the chirpy Campus Conservatives spammed your inboxes and printed out a bunch of flyers. In December, CM Life ran a 500-word story quoting the group's mouthpiece at length, although only one candidate had confirmed. Perhaps in that alliterative list of 'don'ts' near the end of this paper's official voice on the matter, it might be wise to add 'don't give so much credence to Campus Conservatives' line of bull**** next time.'

These are students that tried to do great things for CMU's reputation in the state. CM-Life should be ashamed to attack a group that tried to bring people of importance to this campus.

It really shows they mean a lot to the campus and the author of this story really doesn't understand how wonderful it still is that one candidate for governor is coming. I have not heard of anyone from the democratic party attending. Maybe students should get more involved and more people will come to campus.
