The American public loves debate, real, television and others. And since a large percentage of voters are young people, who generally do not go to the polls, the task of US presidential candidates is to interest and stimulate.

Liz Mair , head of the online communications department from Republicans; in the blue corner is
Mike Nelson , a professor
at Georgetown University who worked in the administration of former President Clinton on technology policy. It seems that both of these people should be aware of the ideology, implementation and, above all, the problems of Twitter - the way it is, but despite the fact that the debate is not scheduled for one day, evil tongues are already saying that all Lisa and Mike on the departure of servers in the down after a couple of hours. There is no doubt - the way it will happen.

Time -
Ana Marie Cox journalist, who has thousands of readers, but only 30 friends. In this place, honest American bloggers doubt that she is capable of leading a good Twitter chat.
In order to clarify the decision on the “debates of representatives”:
Barack Obama himself
has 40,000 readers and friends (with whom he, of course, does not communicate), and John McCain said in a
recent interview that he did not know how to use a computer at all. I am even glad that even Medvedev has an account on Odnoklassniki.
