Why can't Republicans deal with the questions their constituents have over their plan to end medicare?

I don't see the media giving this the broadcast attention it did when Democrats were in the hot seat. The media was absolutely over joyed to see a handful of unhinged lunatic Teabaggers get crazy in the town halls. They pumped so much of it on to the air waves you could have sworn that the Teabaggers was its own political party.
