Presidential Debates, Moderators Set

2008_08_debate.jpgThe Commission on Presidential Debates announced moderators for the three presidential debates and one vice-presidential debate scheduled for September and October. The presidential debates are: September 26 at the University of Mississippi in Oxford with Jim Lehrer moderating; October 7 at Belmont University in Nashville, TN with Tom Brokaw moderating; and October 15 at Hofstra University in Hempstead, NY with Bob Schieffer moderating. Gwen Ifill is moderating the VP debate at Washington University in St. Louis, Mo. on October 2. Which means ABC News was completely shut out of the debates.

    Debate?. A REAL debate would be any one of these two schmoes (or even better; both!) face to face against Ron Paul.



    But America needs to come out of its coma first for something like that to result productive.



    More than ever next years option will again be chocolate or vanilla. Pun intended. Sue me.

    not only was ABC shut out, but so was the entire western portion of the United States.
