HuffPost Invites 08 Candidates to Online Debate

CNET claims that Reuters reports (a few snippets):

" that one of the most widely read U.S. political blogs is inviting candidates for the 2008 presidential election to hold an online debate, a first that would confirm the Internet's reach and influence. "

"2008 is going to be critical, in terms of the coverage of the election," Huffington said. "We are working to put together the first primary online debate among candidates and working out the logistics of how this is going to happen."

"The Huffington Post has sent debate invitations to declared candidates for the 2008 race, including Democrats John Edwards and Sen. Chris Dodd, and has held informal talks with the campaigns of likely candidates, Huffington said."


Read the rest here. Intriguing idea.

I have a hunch JRE might accept such an invitation.

    This is incorrect. Only Republican and Democratic declared candidates are being invited. Democracy is a work in progress.
