MSNBC’s ‘Rate The Candidates’

As part of MSNBC’s continuing rollout of its theme to offer “A Fuller Spectrum of News,” it now has an interactive feature called “Rate the Candidates”:

You watch a video featuring clips of the candidates talking about their positions on key issues and then use the sliders to give them a positive, negative or neutral rating. Once you’ve done that, you can see the results of how other people have rated other candidates. Locals: learn from this. Many locals now have sections that feature the candidates’ positions on issues – and this is a fun interactive way of drawing people in to learn more and offer instant feedback.
