5. Is it because of a GOP strategy to POUND anti Obama messages on TV for months with free media?
Or is it just due to the greater number of Youtube/Google/Facebook "new media" organizations to sponsor these things now?

3. Hillary and Obama debated 24 times
The last one was that disgraceful job in Philadelphia on April 16, 2008 moderated by Charles Gibson and George Snufalupagus.

After that one the Obama people said "no more".
