GOP NOT SO HIP TO THE INTERTUBES. Via Salon: It’s fascinating/typical that only two GOP candidates, Ron Paul and John McCain, have agreed to participate in the GOP version of the YouTube/CNN debate we all enjoyed so much this week. This looks to me a little bit like print journalists whining about the corrosive effects of online media. Don’t you get it, guys? You can’t resist this stuff.
