Again, however, I lay a lot of blame on the media. Be it a debate or an interview, one can only respond to the questions asked.

You're STILL whining about that question!!? Get over it. She was tossed a straight forward question and SHE BLEW IT on double-speak. It stuns me when Guilinai accidentally gets something right, but if she trips up on a question about drivers lincences what'll happen if it's a real issue?
This problem of dishonest from Hillary isn't going to go away just because you apologists want it to. The right wingers were counting on you guys to prop up Hillary and now you're seeing why.

If the candidate were to ask the moderator or interview, "Why aren't you asking us about........," that candidate would be accused of changing the subject to avoid answering the question at hand.

Obama did precisely that. See, he knew how not to fuck up and he knew to be honest about how he felt. Hillary has yet to follow his example and she won't.

Personally, I'd like to see a candidate ask why other questions about other issues are asked.
I also think the media does us all a disservice by trying to fit too many topics in too small a time frame.

With all the debates we've had at some point the candidate has to take some responsibility. See, had 100% of questions given to Hillary been softballs instead of the current 98% you'd say the media was doing a great job. This is the kind of tactic we hear from extremist right wingers all the time, '
It's the media's fault.' boo-hoo. The media's no help, but then again, Hillary knew that from the start and- at first, counted on it. Now she's got to deal with the monster she helped create.

With 8 candidates in a debate, the entire debate could be devoted to the economy, or global warming.

Maybe if your party had made a bigger issue of both this would've happened. But most of your party won't take serious steps to deal with environmental problems and their answers for the economy are mostly band-aid solutions. After that they just give us lip service but no results.
