Conservatives must be growing more desperate
With no other ammo left in the trenches, conservative Republicans are now running in the opposite direction, seemingly satisfied with lowering the standard of discourse by desperately tossing grenades at both YouTube and CNN, accusing them of "political bias." Whatever.
Running away from YouTube after the Democrats did so well only proves one thing -- that the official party of Dixie feels uncomfortable standing toe-to-toe with today's culture and tomorrow's generation.

I think it was that snowman and his concern for his children that that the republicans couldn't muster the courage to face.
If these clowns on YouTube are 'tomorrow's generation'...GAME OVER!

"the official party of Dixie "
Maybe for the last 25 years or so when "Dixie" has been altered significantly from what it once was. Prior to that the south was solid democrat for 100+ years.

You think the South has been altered or that the democratic party has gone WAY off course?
I'd vote the latter.
So, you think CNN and YouTube would be unbiased? I don't.
However, I also question the decision not to do the debate. Dan Rather practically got George HW Bush elected after their on-air spat if memory serves correct. Just cause the democrats chickened out on FoxNews, I don't see why the Repubs are following suit.

I agree with Neo, if YouTube is the next generation then God help us. I watched some of the debates. You have ten people, most of whom have zero chance of being nominated, answering in 30 second rehearsed soundbites. While some of the questions were good, ones like "Sen. Obama, are you black enough?" are pathetic.
BTW, I read that the YouTube debate discriminated against the poor, as some don't have computers and/or internet access or cable TV.

Democrats and you tube a perfect combination.
What a joke.
I think the Dems are trying to look ridiculous
That’s called “playing to their base”.
I like the strategy
