2. Didn't he agree to TX and OH already?
After 18, I think that's enough.

in other words, no on giving them immunity. :)

Edited on Tue Feb-12-08 03:00 PM by truebrit71
I have heard your waffling about the pro-Iraq war enough times already Mrs. Clinton...and it doesn't get any better the more times you say it (in it's latest iteration)...

Oh and Hon, it would have been nice if you would have cared as much about our rights by VOTING IN THE SENATE AND DOING YOUR DAMN JOB, rather than campaigning...but hey, that's just me...

Like what happened in the potomac primaries. But Obama did agree to a discussion with her. I think it was last night?

24. A resounding NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama's numbers are looking very good up there. The campaign is very strong in Milwaukee and has also set up shop in Madison.

He should spend more time with the voters :rofl:

25. That would be a good idea.
I prefer to see them debate rather than rely on the media to show us what the candidates are like. The more debates, the better if you ask me. I am sick of media spin and the debates show us the substance of the candidates.

29. Perhaps you should invest in a DVR
Because there have already been already about 27 HOURS of debates so far.

about either candidate and I have watched many of them.

He needs to work in TX and OH, and not waste time bickering with her.

38. I like the town hall meetings Obama is doing tomorrow
They both should do that all week, Iowa-style. Enough with the debates, meet some real people and answer the questions face-to-face.

40. Let's have a debate for every state!
Enough with debates. Hopefully the two they agreed two are ones that will exlcude Iraq, Economy, Healthcare. I'd like to hear something besides those issues for once.

The Obama campaign is reviewing the offer and will respond at a later date.

45. Actually, I think that is a great idea for BOTH candidates. Exposure is exposure.
It's not like they can say anything different than what is already said. Besides, there is always the chance of slighted handshakes and off looks that can keep us all revved until the next primary. Okay, that was a little sarcastic. But overall, I think exposure is exposure and I think not only both candidates stand to benefit, but the entire democratic party in general.
