Time flies when you’re getting jabbered at by a lightly furred ballsack! Wolf Blitzer has apparently been hosting CNN’s Late Edition for ten wonderful years, and this Sunday America will get to enjoy two whole hours of decadent Blitzerian retrospectives. Relive Wolf’s proudest Journalistic Moments, after the jump. MORE »

Sure, Hillary Clinton always refuses to discuss hypotheticals. But what if, hypothetically speaking, she were to kiss Barack Obama in the French style onstage during a debate, in front of Wolf Blitzer and millions of television viewers? Would that be awesome, or the opposite of awesome? Fortunately, Video Science has the answer!

This brought to you by CamPain 2008, creator of the stunning Barack OBollywood video.

Even though it was the 800th debate in the last 24 hours, and it overlapped with the premiere of Lost, the Hollywood Liberals Debate last night “drew 8,324,000 million total viewers, making it the most-watched primary debate in cable news history, and the second-most watched on TV this election cycle (ABC’s Democratic debate on Jan. 5 drew 9,360,000).” John Edwards was not one of these 8.3 million people tuning in, as it was his first night shift back at his old employer, The Mill.

*WHY TRUST THEM WITH ANYTHING:* CNN was so terrible at hosting the last two debates that… they’ve put two more on the schedule — in Ohio. Assuming the nominations haven’t been locked up (please lock them, all of you!), they’ll host a debate for each party on February 27 or 28. It is still unclear whether these debates will overlap with the first debates of the 2012 primary season. [TV Decoder]

Time for a good old-fashioned Iowa Live Blog, made of butter. Huckabee is the GOP winner, Romney’s paying a heavy price for believing in the Wrong Jesus and also being a creepy guy, Ron Paul has totally been set up, and we can’t remember who is or isn’t supposed to win the for the Dems. Elizabeth Kucinich, right? Our nation’s first hippie Englishwoman! A redhead really can be president, maybe. MORE »

CNN will partner with the Los Angeles Times and Politico to put on the last two debates of the primary season — Republicans on Jan. 30 and Demrats on Jan. 31 in LA, right before Super Tubersday. So if giving CNN yet another chance to screw up major debates is the first mistake, then allowing Wolf Blitzer to moderate one of them (Anderson Cooper the other, meh) is the second, third and fourth mistakes. It’s also interesting that CNN would partner with the LA Times, which called them the “Corrupt News Network” over the weekend. MORE »

Macaca and The Beard had a chat on CNN yesterday about Fred Thompson and the election. (Jesus, that was five of Wonkette’s least favorite people/things in the same sentence)! Anyway, The Beard also asked Macaca what he thinks about the Internet, which virally obliterated his political career last fall (ah, sweet memories). Macaca loves it though! And he loves the Guttenberg press! No love, however, for 18th-century pamphleteering, which was easily the peak of socially aware douchebag dissemination.

Hour two of the YouTube Debate continues here, from here. More videos, more videos now, we want more videos, blah blah Paultards. MORE »
