Optimistic

by Patrick Ruffini :: July 30th, 2007 1:44 pm

I am cautiously optimistic that there will be a Republican YouTube debate. CNN is now working to reschedule the debate, and Governor Romney says that he’d be open to participating in a rescheduled debate. Mayor Giuliani expressed support for a date change as early as last Friday, and in fact says he enjoyed the format. Both candidates are fully on board with the idea that a scheduling conflict is no reason to pass up this unique opportunity to speak the American people.

SavetheDebate.com will continue to keep the pressure on. As Ronald Reagan said, “Trust but verify.” We’ll continue to hold the candidates’ feet to the fire until all the candidates are confirmed to attend the first Internet-driven Republican debate. And then we’ll turn to the next phase of our effort: taking the lead in driving intelligent, quality questions for the candidates from grassroots Republicans online and off.

Please keep visiting SavetheDebate.com to sign the petition and catch our roundup of all the great media coverage this weekend.

Patrick, you might want to correct this on the Save the Debate site:
A free and open debate that includes the American people could be just what the doctor ordered to break the stanglehold of the liberal media.
