That would benefit Fox more than it would benefit the Democrats or the electorate, given how popular the Democrats are and consequently how much ratings they would draw.
The electorate would benefit more from a debate held on Comedy Central.

Sure Gulliani wants FOX to host them! FOX asks the hard questions of those they disagree with, and gives clowns like Gulliani a ride. When he said he could do a better job of protecting against terrorism, why didn't faux news ask him why he put the anti terrorism watch people in the WTC, to die when terrorists attacked the WTC the second time? Why didn't they ask him about the lucrative business he set up after 9/11, (to fight terrorism) that has made him millions? Why didn't they question him when he said that Ron Paul was wrong about why our actions in the ME cause terrorism? Faux news is a joke. The hell with them, and the hell with gulliani. It's the channel of morons, for morons.

You know what this shows from the Democrat party, it shows just how COWARDLY THEY ARE!!! If these babies cant answer questions from a conservative side how are they going to deal with other countries when they are faced with hard questions.. Its funny though the REPUBLICANS had the kahunas to go on the other channels and get nailed... Typical Cowardice behavior once again from the Democrat party.. Anyone who cant take the heat from BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE doesnt deserve to EVEN BE CONSIDERED FOR PRESIDENT!!!!

Democrats just don't want to give any promotion to a news channel that is so openly against everything they believe in.

So Rudy Giuliani, a man with 3 marriages, 2 of which fell apart badly, whose own kids have beef with, who hired Bernard Kerrik, who has mob ties, who accused the troops of not doing their job on finding WMD's in 2003, and flip-flopped all over the place on abortion, is tell Democrats to go on FOX news and debate them there?
Wow, the fact that he even mentioned, considering the NUMEROUS PROBLEMS his campaign has (see the article on Dobson not supporting him), anything about anything the Democratic presidental hopefuls are doing, is particulary galling. What's the old saying 'fix your house first before fixing others'?
At any rate, for anyone wanting to know why Democrats shouldn't go on FOX for a debate, just take a look at the link.
