Political Crossfire

I've been a member at Political Crossfire for quite a while and it's everything you'd expect from a political forum. What it lacks in sophistication, it makes up for in post content, as this is one of the most active forums on the web. It's running PHPBB software, which comes off smooth and efficient, but lacks the user-friendliness of V-Bulletin. There aren't any technical or server problems here, so you'll be able to check through the vast selection of posts as quickly as you'll please.

Political Crossfire has more of a CNN Chatroom feel to it. It lacks the charm and friendliness of those forums whose individual "groups" or "clicks" add to a forums peculiar culture. For the most part, its just people dropping in to comment on the issues of the day. The debates are rational and often times go into great detail. The volume of activity here speaks to the quality of its members and moderator staff. Check it out.
