Michelle Malkin had a post about how the Republicans should not run away from the CNN/YouTube debates and instead should call them on their crap. I think she is right. Running away from a debate like this will send a message that Republicans are somehow afraid of “real people”. Instead I would like to see the candidates be frank and take stands on their message. I’m tired of wishy washy Republicans who give in to Liberals because they don’t want to be hated. I want someone that will stand up defend their beliefs and call Liberals (including CNN) on their crap. Ultimately, a Republican that can clearly defend his principals will be more respected by Americans and will win the election.

There is also a post by at Hot Air with an open letter to the candidates and the YouTube clip below.
