Pudge Headed to YouTube/CNN/GOP Debate in Florida

A couple of weeks ago I got an e-mail from Steve Grove, who works on the News & Politics section on YouTube. He's the face of "Citizen Tube."

I had submitted some questions to the GOP candidates for the upcoming YouTube/CNN/GOP debate, and he liked them, and also liked some of the songs I'd put up on my YouTube channel. Out of the blue, he asked me about writing a song about the GOP candidates and the debate. That night I jotted down some lyrics and had a tune in my head, and the next night I recorded it.

Well, he liked it, and said he'd feature it on YouTube. Then he invited me to actually come to the debate, and do videos from there. I said yes, so YouTube is flying me out to St. Petersburg, Florida, for the debate.

I'll be posting junk on my YouTube page.

I also set up a playlist for the videos I'm making related to the debate.

I don't know if I will be on TV. But regardless, the debate will be on CNN at 8 p.m. Eastern / 5 p.m. Pacific, on Wednesday, November 28, and the aftermath will be posted on YouTube.


congrats

Not only is Fox news a great station, but it has the hottest news women around. I'd be on a panel with Megyn Kelly, Martha MacCallum, Lis Wiehl and Laurie Dhue any day! Go Pudge Go!

cool

Coincidentally, I came across your "GOP Debate Song (Live)" last night in the Featured section of the iPod Touch YouTube portal.

Well done!

I finally saw the debate on Tivo last night. You were brilliant! Of course, now I wonder what some of your questions were...
