Shouldn't we be concerned that hyper-partisans have a bit of an unspoken understanding that tough questions that would embarass both sides won't be asked? For instance, ABC's Sunday debate featured absolutely no questions about immigration matters. What use is free debate video if the questions are puffballs and don't deal with important topics? Perhaps instead of trying to make crap content free, this site could concentrate on trying to make the content better.
