Romney Vs. The Snowman

The battle between Mitt Romney and the Snowman is heating up – and Romney might melt first. The snowman in question was in a YouTube video aired at the Democrats' CNN/YouTube debate. While using a snowman instead of a human to ask a question is geeky, it wasn't completely out of left field because the snowman asked about global warming.

However, Romney took offense to the playful snowman and found taking questions from snowmen - and, by extension, the unwashed YouTube masses - distasteful. He declined an invitation to take part in the Republican version of the CNN/YouTube debate, claiming a schedule conflict. The debate was rescheduled for November 28, but Romney still hasn't made a commitment.

It was inevitable that Billiam the YouTube Snowman would serve Romney with a retort:

Last we heard, Mitt Romney still hasn't agreed to join the YouTube debate, even though Rudy Giuliani, who also ducked out the first time the debate was scheduled, will participate in this go-round.

It doesn’t matter. Internet sensation Ron Paul will probably own all of them.
