Interesting thought.    Might be an interesting television move to announce a debate, invite Senator McConnell and Mr. Lunsford to appear, and if one of them does not show, then ask the questions to the candidate who did appear. 

Times are serious; and all the candidates should be serious too. 

The "D" word is being mentioned regarding the economy.

Now speaking of "Dee" words, where are those bloodhounds unleashed by McConnell from the 1984 "Dee" Huddleston campaign?  The post by Andrew Green last year at his blog seems a little more interesting within the context of the debate declinations by the incumbent senator in "Nipping at McConnell's heels".

Although the incumbent usually has more to lose in a debate by legitimizing the challenger and appearing as equals, the point is that inquiring minds want to know some answers and want them and need them in a format different than the 30 second sound-bites and counter-punches using veterans as pawns in this political campaign.  Not good.

If Lunsford adopts the McConnell Move from years gone by, do you think there will be some television spots the last few days with some bloodhounds looking for the incumbent? 

And if there is no debate on the meatier issues, what about a "Where's the beef?"

Cute commercials, but not informative.  Cute does not cut it today.

This post is not designed to push either candidate for election, just push them to a debate of the issues. 

If debates are good enough for presidential candidates, they should be good enough for senatorial candidates too. 

So, I ask, where's the beef?
