Kerrey (D-NE) wants another debate; state Republicans disagree

Source: Omaha World Herald

By Robynn Tysver

Democrat Bob Kerrey threw a press conference Monday and Republicans crashed the party, as the two sides dueled over debates in the final week of Nebraska's U.S. Senate campaign.

Kerrey called the news conference — outside the hallway of his campaign office — to challenge Republican Deb Fischer to a fourth debate. His call for another debate comes as Fischer has accused Kerrey of being more interested in talking about a 1995 lawsuit over a land dispute than about the issues.

Kerrey said he wanted to “put to rest” any concerns Fischer had about his willingness to talk about the issues by offering another debate.

“Any time, any place. The more people who can watch it, the better,” said Kerrey.

I think she is devoid of any redeeming value.
Kerry should hit her really hard on women's rights and ethics.
She may not understand the ethics questions though,She doesn't have any.

His campaign really looked dead as recently as a couple of weeks ago. The teabaggers nominate the most pathetic and miserable candidates possible.
