Terrorism, North Korea, Russia's Anti-American resurgance? The GOP says they're not worried. But questions from concerned voters? Holy f**king s**t!!! I'm not coming out until they sign a loyalty oath. Pussies!
Let's see if Ron Paul gets an "unfair" amount of him in his own forum, or if CNN/YouTube will cherry pick questions for the "top tier" candidates and still give them more time.
I'd be scared if I were them too. If done fairly, they're going to get crushed. For the first time in a Republican debate this cycle, the target audience may be smarter and more well-informed than the candidates on any given issue. No more scaring grandma for votes - they're going to actually provide substantive answers to real people. YIKES!
As stupid as a lot of these guys are, there's no way you can convince me that the Youtube population is smarter - have you read the comments on 95+% of the videos?

So much for Ghouliani and Romney's 'scheduling concerns'.

Have you looked at more than 40% of the videos?

Is that even humanly possible with how big Youtube is now?
