I, for one, would be uncomfortable listening to two guys "debating" something that the body that are a member of is working on. What kind of insight would we get...what they got from a phone call ?

Forget the debates....save the money....have the town hall meetings with CITIZENS who can address the citizens concerns ! Of course televised, but I am tired of the debate process where a "journalist" and I use that term loosely is trying to get a story but tripping up a candidate. Let US ask the questions, perhaps with backup from reporters !
