Virtual debate

Since Oregon's candidates for governor had only one debate and won't otherwise be seen together, Oregon Public Broadcasting brought together diverse clips of their views on comparable issues and put together a Virtual Debate, which is a great idea but which also gives considerable power to the entity arranging the clips. A lot of editorial manipulation is invited in this format. It's no substitute for a real debate but perhaps better than nothing.
