Well, I did this thing. You know how people will "live-blog" things like debates and the State of the Union? Well, I tried the same thing with Stripcreator.

The YouTube debate for Republicans was this evening, and I was able to live-strip every video but one - I think about abortion. Of course I wasn't fairly representing their positions, I'm a freaking Democrat. But this is what resulted.

And here are some sample strips:

Republican YouTube Debate - Amnesty by boloboffin 11-28-07

Mr. Romney, Mr. Giuliani, we have a lot more questions... You employed illegals! ------------------------ Did not!!!! Will you pledge right now to veto any bill that grants amnesty to illegals!! Well, I'm Fred Thompson, and I'll be glad to. And Rudy did have a sanctuary city. Bitch, don't think I won't slap you back to Law and Order as well.

Republican YouTube Debate - Grover Yanks the No Tax Chain by boloboffin 11-28-07

I'm Grover Norquist. Will you promise me your very soul? Yes! Uh, yeah, yeah, Grover. If I get to give it to the American People first... What he said. Absolutely. American people.

Republican YouTube Debate - Written Exam on Guns by boloboffin 11-28-07

Why'd you make people pass an exam to have a gun? Well, there can be reasonable tests on that... BOOOOOOO!!! There wasn't a law against guns that Guiliani didn't use on Judith Nathan... HIYOOOOOO!!!

Republican YouTube Debate - First Commercial Break by boloboffin 11-28-07

As we go to break, Fred Thompson's campaign ad. Roll it. AYYYIYIYIYIYIYIYI!!! AYYYIYIYIYIYIYIYI!!! Holy Fucking Christ. What?

Republican YouTube Debate - The Power of Cheney by boloboffin 11-28-07

I'm Vice President Cheney. Will you give your Veep the same amount of power as I got? Hell, no. I want something to do in my adminstration. Damn straight.

That is all sorts of pure win. My jaw dropped when I saw that ad. Excellent skewer of Thompson.

Your Romney and Giuliani cariactures were great. The "I can't write a better punchline than this" for Huckbee was awesome (it's even funnier now that he's currently #1 in national polls). It makes me sad that Tancredo and Hunter are pretty much word-for-word how you wrote them.

You didn't seem to get as much humor from McCain and Paul as I expected, though. Portraying Paul as plain ol' crazy is a bit overdone - I was hoping you'd find some other way to satirize him. No puns on McCain's favorite "straight talk" phrase? For shame. (I'm pretty sure he used it at least once in the debate.)

Overall, a successful experiment! You should do this again with the rest of the Republican debates.
