Fun with snowmen
The other night at the Republican presidential debate, Howard Dean asked a question. Something like why would Americans vote for any Republican when they so clearly want change. He then gestured to his left and said, "We'd like to know" as the camera showed his little buddy, a snowman. It looks at first blush like Dean was having another one of those regrettable moments. But what Dean was referring to were comments from Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney saying he didn't want to take part in a debate that included questions from snowmen, such as those asked at a Democratic debate with questions from YouTube users. From the New York Times' Adam Nagourney in July: "Mr. Romney described some of the YouTube questions as demeaning, singling out a question on global warming from a snowman. For now, the Republican field seems content to stay on the traditional road. They are debating Sunday morning on national television (“This Week with George Stephanopoulos” on ABC News) from Iowa. You can be sure there will be no snowmen asking questions." Well, Dean was apparently speaking on the snowman's behalf. See the YouTube video here. - Terri Hallenbeck
