I think they've been giving Kucinich crap for a while, now. The alien question in the last debate was over the line, too. He's a fringe candidate, but he shouldn't be treated differently. The media is supposed to be balanced and unbiased. What they seem to have done is decide who are the serious contenders and who's out of the race. The serious ones get the serious questions (and more of them) and the rest get leftovers. And Kucinich gets treated like crap.

I don't believe Wolf Blitzer was mean to Dennis Kucinich. I think Wolf wanted succinct answers and Dennis Kucinich objects to the framing of questions, which is a more-than-okay thing to do; it's actually quite wise.
Wolf Blitzer mean? No.
Wolf Blitzer trying to get direct answers from the candidates? Yes.

All the candidates are to blame I think -- the guy is just trying to ask as many questions as possible I think (I'd rather have fewer questions, more debate personally), but these ones just keep talking and talking even after their time is up. I'm pretty sure you'd fail a debate class if you acted that way!

I'd be pissed at the world too if my mom named me "Wolf".
