3. Can we have one discussion without insulting the Senator?
Its not about poll threshold at NY1 for Tasini. If he had shown a 10 point rise in the polls because of the MSM coverage of the debate fiasco, Clinton may have been shamed into debating. But with the polls showing a very modest rise and with her lead, she can simply ignore him.

"His poll numbers would skyrocket if he debated Clinton, he'd have popularity"

This is an assumption with no valid evidence to support it.

Again, I think Hillary should debate him but I understand poltiically why she won't. Its not facing questions about the war persay, its why bother giving your opponent any traction when the only place yoiur numbers have to go is down.
