Starting tomorrow, U.S. Senate candidates Al Franken and Norm Coleman will answer questions on YouTube.

It's part of a YouTube program, called "You Choose '08," which is highlighting some of the biggest congressional races in the country.

The candidates will respond to video questions submitted by viewers to the popular Internet site. A handful of questions will be featured, and the candidates' responses will be shown side-by-side.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer talked with Steve Grove, who is the head of news and politics at YouTube.
