Why would people already decided for Democratic candidates in Democratic primaries need to ask questions of Republican candidates in Republican primaries?

So, how many Republicans were at the last CNN Democratic debate? I would guess none!

They had more than 5000 questions submitted and they not only managed to pick general swishypants’ question, they also managed to fly him cross country, put him up in a hotel, and put a mic in his hand.

Sounds like somebody cared a lot.

Thanks for posting, now I’m reminded again why I haven’t watched CNN in years, and won’t ever again, either.

If I wanted to know what Dems would ask Repubican candidates, I’d just read the MSM news. It sure isn’t anything any conservative would be interested in listening to.

Yeah, pool any 30 people, and you’re likely to find at least six are paid Democratic activists. Did CNN say that these were “undecided voters,” as was frequently asserted by FReepers, or not? And where were the Republican activists at the Democratic debate? And what the hell was up with giving Colenol Sanders so much microphone time?

Afterward, Senior Vice President and Executive Producer of the debate, David Bohrman, issued a statement. "We regret this incident. CNN would not have used the general's question had we known that he was connected to any presidential candidate."

... but we will continue to use Hillary Clinton's biggest supporter as our presidental pollster, despite his statement that she will be our next president.

Pfff. Uh yeah CNN, we call those ringers. Their intent is to ask setup questions to make opposition candidates look bad. If you think misleading viewers who are watching your debate under the assumption that the questioners are legit, then I’d say you deserve your tanking ratings.

“CNN cared about what you asked”

Of course they did. They wanted questions they hoped would make the candidates look bad. They didn’t care that democrats asked them.

No lies here. Totally the truth.

So, when the Dems debate they will let Republicans ask quetions of Hillary?

How about "In light of your husband's experiences, has your opinion on strict enforcement of sexual harassment in the workplace changed?"

Or "Do you still believe it is rare for woman to lie about being raped?"

I just have two questions.

Why did the spineless wimps do “their thing” on CNN and not FOX?

Why are the top tier RINOS whining now?

I don’t feel sorry for those %^&*&$!!!

Thank you.

"The whole point of these ground-breaking CNN/YouTube debates is to focus on substantive questions of concern to real people and to throw open the process to a wider range of Americans all around the country. CNN cared about what you asked, not who you were. This was the case for both the Democratic and the Republican CNN/YouTube debates," CNN said in a statement issued late in the day.

That's a remarkable statement. The "Clinton News Network" certainly is brazen in trumpeting its shameless shilling for the left.

...concern to real people

Simple explanation. Only Dims are real people.

CNN cared about what you asked, not who you were.

The vested interests who are challenging the credibility of the questioners are trying to distract voters from the substantive issues they care most about.

Typical lib misdirection of the issue. That is not what folks on internet were exploding about. They were switching on to CNN calling the plants undecided voters, NOT challenging the credibility of the questioners!

Simply put, CNN lied. CNN tried to dupe American Citizens into thinking the phony questions are the issues American wants to know about. CNN took the "discredited low-road approach,"

And this statement indicates just how out of touch they really are!

and throughout this election campaign CNN will stay focused on what the candidates are saying about the pressing issues facing this country at a critical time in our history.

What the hell ever happened to the issues the American Citizens are ASKING ABOUT?
