More Dem 'debates'. Good idea? Or not?
I just don't see what purpose it serves or how it helps us in November.
Now that the Mittster (hated by all other repug candidates) is out it looks like the repug cockfight is over.

I don't see how it helps to continue to send our team's co-captains into head-to-head scrimmages.

What am I missing here?
I'm sure you guys will let me know.
:-)

1. I think it's Hillary needing free TV time.
I don't think it really helps us, but unless it turns into mud-slinging it shouldn't hurt us.

2. There are still lots of people out there who haven't made up their minds, what's the harm?

3. Great Idea!
We need to keep the Democrats on page one and always on the News/talk cycle 24/7.

Also it will be an opportunity to discuss Ohio 's problems

4. We need to find more distance between the two candidates on policy.
We need to find out how they are going to pay of all their promises. We need more time with them since obviously they are so close it is hard for many to make the call and support Hillary or Obama.
