Via Instapundit, Bob Krum remarks on CNN's failure to vet the questioners at last night's debate--at least three of whom turned out to be declared supporters of Democratic candidates or outright plants from Democratic campaigns:

I'm not the biggest media bias basher out there by any stretch, but this is crystal clear evidence that CNN has hired the New Republic to do its fact checking. Do check out the link to see just how many of the questions were obvious and easily discovered plants.

At least CNN cut out Kerr's question in the replay last night, and Cooper apologized, if half-heartedly. TNR still hasn't taken a definitive position on Beauchamp after more than five months--their "investigation" continues.
