Rudy Giuliani And Mitt Romney Are Afraid Of Your Questions

Formal invitations for the Republican CNN YouTube debate went out last week, and it looks like we will have a couple of no shows. Giulinani is stating he is having scheduling problems, and can’t make it to Florida on September 17 for the YouTube debates. According to a Giuliani spokesman, “We have serious scheduling issues. That’s prime fund-raising time.” So it is more important to talk to a small group of rich contributors than it is to talk to the rest of us at the debate. The presidential candidates must release updated fundraising and spending reports for the third quarter in early October, which is just two weeks after the debate. You would think if Giuliani had a good performance at the debate he could raise even more funds. Mitt Romney is also not to hot on the idea of a YouTube debate. Romney said, “I think the presidency ought to be held at a higher level than having to answer questions from a snowman.” Actually the question was asked by a real person, and the snowman was just a prop used to get attention. Florida is playing a bigger role in the next election, and Republicans were all excited about it as the location for this innovative debate style, but now the front runners are putting a damper on their excitement. I think they are just afraid of your questions.
