You tube or die
One could not call the Dems brilliant on the You-Tube debate but they showed up.
The Republicans, apparently, are a little less up for it.
Romney and Rudy are wobbly….OK Fred, go for it.
What these folks may not be getting is just how fast the media landscape is shifting. If they have a chance of actually talking to the vast majority of the electorate they are going to have to play the You-tube game. Of course the questions are likely to be partisan, rude and irrelevant. So what? The net is just like that.
Suck it up and face the pain: it is the real world. Time to deal with it.

“If they have a chance of actually talking to the vast majority of the electorate they are going to have to play the You-tube game.”
I am so sure you made the same argument when the democrats REFUSED to debate on Fox News. Right. Liberals defended and lauded that move, and a Fox News debate would’ve reached a far bigger majority of the electorate than any other station, and youtube. Hypocrites.

Mitt Romney was just on CSPAN moments ago and took a YouTube question, along with a plethora of telephone calls in CSPAN’s standard format of Republican, Democrat and Independent phone lines.
He also said, due to his schedule, he is unable to attend the CNN/YouTube debate in Sept.
