This battle is better just ignored. It's bullshit that ANSWER scares
away anyone, except a few journalists and careerists like Hayden. ANSWER
is still a pain in the ass and I would like it vanish, but for quite
different reasons than that it will scare away liberals ("mainstream
people" is aesopian language for "old fashioned liberals among the
citizenry," who constitute a rather different group than do professional
liberals).
