Bill Maher: Can you give me a good reason why in a free and fair society marijuana should be illegal?
Chris Dodd: And again, and ah the overall of general of allowing ah the the decriminalization I strongly advocate as well.
You can mashup the Democratic Debate over on Yahoo!'s Jumpcut site. It takes some work though since the online interface isn't as direct as that of a desktop editor, but you can edit the clips and make your own mashups.
I edited down a long winded question by Bill Maher and shortened Chris Dodd's answer to get to the point quickly. It's kind of like those services that edit down baseball games into 15 minutes. Someone could do that do a debate and give viewers the main points in a quick summary. It'd be a lot of work though.
I'll be interested to see what type of creative results come from this.
Head over to the Democratic Candidate Mashup page at Jumpcut to try it out yourself and let me know what you think.

Even shorter!
Oh man, don't make it shorter! The problem with all of the "debates" so far is that it's nothing but fluffy 30- and 60-second sound bites! I haven't had a chance to watch many of the clips yet, and I had hopes of the Charlie Rose format giving the opportunity to get into some more *depth* on some issues...I hope we can find better things to do with that annoying Jumpcut interface than just turn this into more of the same previous popcorn niblets.
Jumpcut schmumpcut, I'd rather find a way to download some raw files and edit something really fun with a better tool.
