All this publicity would have been unimaginable a month ago.


Thanks Rudy !

Maybe all the complimentary email to Wolf (after the last interview) have paid off and Wolf wants more?

:D

Agreed.

It's because of the controversy.

Yep and it's kicking Giuliani in the ass and i'm loving every second of it. Controversy or not, Wolf was awesome during the last interview because he let Ron give answers without stupid interruptions. He might put on the heat this time because of pressures from somewhere...ya never know. I'm confident that Ron Paul can handle whatever comes his way.

I have this feeling that Blitzer wants to try and trap Ron Paul this time around. I really don't see him wanting to give him air time to help him.

Their topics of discussion are slated to be Gaza and Iran. Trap or not, this is going to be an awesome opportunity.

Ron Paul loves a good trap.

The guy has served in politics since the 70's, and he serves on the house comitee on foreign affairs, and the house financial comittee. Good friggan luck trying to trap Ron Paul. Benito Giuliani tried, and look whats happening to him.

Theres no way you can be trapped if you tell the truth and back it up with facts.

If Hannity couldn't trap Ron by interrupting him and distorting his words, Wolf probably won't be able to with his calm interviewing style.

not that CNN is much more than government regurgitation theater, but i'd love to see them light-up Fox (and Rudy) by posing that question.

Perhaps the CNN folks will have a better set of ideas than Fox when they meet to discuss formats. C'mon Wolf!

"Mayor G, Congressman Paul has suggested that you should apologize to him because he says that you 'must not have read the [9/11] commision report.'You have the opportunity to do so now. Mayor?"

Blitzer is going to be the next debate's moderator. So if he does a great or adequate job with Paul, nicely thank him. Even if it's slightly inadequate, let's please not threaten or swear at him. We've gotta keep him on our good side for the moment. If he doesn't treat Dr Paul well in the debate on June 5, THEN we can swear at him.

Exactly! So if we get the chance to butter up Blitzer, let's do it. Without spamming him. Short & sweet notes if he does an adequate job tomorrow.

Let's see what happens. It is suppose to be a NH GOP member that will be coming up with the questions. I don't think NH will put up with the crap some other States will.

Hannity isn't very smart, Blitzer is conniving.

I agree. CNN is pretty anti-war. In fact, I think most networks are except Fox. :rolleyes:

I only watch three networks (normally I don't watch any at all, preferring the Internet).

The way I gather it ~

FOX - Neoconservative and sensationalist.
CNN - Liberal but watered down.
MSNBC - Diverse and inquisitive.

My favorite is MSNBC, mainly because Tucker Carlson is on there. :p

I wouldn't call CNN anti-war. CNN fiddles to their viewership which is primarily Democrat. Basically they are socialists that support the Democrats and thus will support their actions.

Has anyone actually asked Giuliani on mainstream TV why the hell he has never heard our foreign policies in the the middle east can cause blowback?

Will someone record the interview and post it to YouTube? Again, no cable, but anxious to see how this turns out.

Should be coming on soon, but my guess is that Ron Paul will be a little later into the show.
