Next CNN/YouTube Debate May Be Postponed

Time Magazine’s Swampland says the Sept. 17 GOP CNN/YouTube debate is being moved back, possibly to December. Only two of the GOP candidates had committed to the debate which was planned for Sept. 17. The Washington Post reports Mitt Romney agreed to participate, if CNN moved the date.

Meanwhile, in what is either the sincerest form of flattery or recognition of the user-generated web world, the National Review Online‘s Greg Pollowitz says next Sunday’s GOP debate on This Week with George Stephanopoulos will include questions from viewers. ABC’s site says “George will put some of the top rated questions (either video or email) to the candidates at the debate!”

All 10 GOP candidates will be in Iowa for that debate.
