Presidential wannabes join the crowd at YouTube


Top White House candidates unveiled their own YouTube video channels on Thursday, pushing the 18-month-old Web video-sharing site even farther into the U.S. political mainstream.

Top White House candidates unveiled their own YouTube video channels on Thursday, pushing the 18-month-old Web video-sharing site even farther into the U.S. political mainstream.

Democrats including Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards and Bill Richardson have signed up to have their own channels. So have Republicans John McCain, Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani.

They can post a video in which they speak on a given issue while members of the public will be able post a video response or questions for the candidate.

I wonder how quickly these will devolve into swift boat-style flames?
