    I wonder if Rove Inc. is also tracking the calls of members of Congress. This sounds an awful lot like the J. Edgar Hoover routine. Just who is McCain talking to? Who calls your Secretary of Defense? Hillary might be cautious but Bill could be making the contacts. To whom did Ted Kennedy talk the night of Patrick's accident? What does Specter's wife do when Arlen is away? The possibilities are endless. Lots of people could suddenly discover that they are on the sinking ship with Bush and find it in their interest to help bail.

    The questions were mostly good. The candidates ignored the questions and simply used the questions to launch into prepared sound-bites. I suspect this is all we can expect.

    Politics and news are entertainment. YouTube was a great idea, but it could not get past the facades.
