We need to get organized and get judge Dave Marsh to recuse himself, since he's publicly stated that Bon Jovi will never get in, and since his wife works for Bruce Springsteen.

But CCR was a critic's band while Bon Jovi was not -- the judges/critics see CCR's legacy as being influential, valuable -- and most important, credible. Richie's absence will make it easier for them to disregard Bon Jovi as a "real" band, despite their being influential enough to pave the way to success to all the other harder-rocking commercial bands. Of course I don't agree, I'm just trying to look at how THEY'RE trying to justify their actions.
