I think it is a great idea. I am so very tired of CNN not asking hard questions. They let the Dems off easy with small easy questions. I love Fox because it gives you both sides. CNN is to biased. Since the Dems have taken the House they have done nothing. I am ashamed of being a Dem. I am glad I voted for Bush at least he is doing something but complain.

"…O’Reilly is more of a moderate than anything…"

HA! Come on… Why won't conservatives admit that they enjoy viewing programming with a rightward tilt to it?

Show me a liberal who won't allow that Olbermann, Mahr, etc. have made their opinions on Bush et al. abundantly clear.

Dude,

The reason the liberal tv doesn't do as well is because educated libs aren't watching TV or listening to the radio for our news.

We're reading it online from as many sources as we can get.

Conservatives like a top-down approach to information. Liberals like to think for ourselves.

Edward from MD, have you ever watched Fox?

Brit Hume's roundtable contains 2 liberals and 2 conservatives, Hannitty and Colmes speaks for itself and O'Reilly is more of a moderate than anything as some of his nightly mail reflects both liberals and conservatives giving him a hard time for his "biased views" on the same subject believe it or not.

Read the NYT, watch ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC (especially that highly impartial Keith Olbermann) or listen to NPR and you get one sole viewpoint, liberal.

Fox is EASILY number one and the MSM is mad as hell that another voice has gotten out.

Now the Democrats are starting to whine about talk radio being one sided and they want to FORCE liberal shows on the air even though a WHOLE station was dedicated to such and it FAILED miserably.

Fox is number one because it is NOT just one viewpoint, but many.

Republicans find it "cowardly" that the Democratic candidates won't waste their time going on Fox Noise??? Bah!
The folks on Fox are such idiots they can't even get the name of the Democratic Party correct.

I find it far more enlightening that the Republican candidates won't speak to the NAACP.
To me, that speaks volumes as far as just who the cowards are.

I would much rather have parties stuffing the Youtube in-boxes than the continued voter fraud of deceased voters and imprisoned fellons continuing to cast ballots!

I do, however, hope the butterfly ballot makes a comeback in the Florida voting regions for this next Presidential election.

"Tired of Democrats Dodging the Questions That Really Matter?"

I'd be interested to know what these questions happen to be, but yeah!

I'm also tired of most Republicans doing the same thing. Get on that, RNC!

Yea, but no other network is as "consistently and outspokenly" left-winged as Fox is right-winged.

I half expect Fox to tell me that there are still WMD's in Iraq…

Great thought by James from Atlanta.

No puff ball questions, real tough ones, like if Democrats went on Fox, oh yeah, they already chickened out of that.

Republicans go on all the networks, even the ones that may ask tough questions.

The Republicans are sinking….going down the tubes with their delusional leader, King George. But while the decider has abandoned ship, the GOP is left to face the future. Of course, they'd want to question the Democrats! How else could they feign any power left in their ranks?

I think this is great. Not so much for Repbulicans vs. Democrats, but for all of us voters. This forum provides us the first opportunity to ask questions to those we do not support. This is great for those who are on the fence to get real clarification on how candidates view speicific issues.

If anything, it would be great to see debates where registered Democrats quiz Republican candidates, and vice versa. I think it is time to go beyond simple partisanship, and individuals from each party to actually take a real clear look at all candidates. First step towards that will be for non-partisans to think up questions.

This is a fabulous idea if it is applied consistently!

Laughable that the RNC wants to ask questions of the Dems when they have yet to respond to why their unwavering support of the Bush administrations failed policies. Incredible!

When's the Republican/Youtube debate so that Democrats can do the same?
