Warner vs. Gilmore. So if you were a political candidate with a twenty point lead over your competitor, would you actually debate your opponent. Hell no. What is Warner thinking? The U.S. Senate race is Mark Warner's to lose. He campaign funds are about 10 to 1 over Gilmore. His lead is over 20 points. And as Louisiana Governor Edwin Edwards was so fond of saying, "the only way I am going to get beat is by someone catching me in bed with a dead girl or a live boy." Just for the record, Gilmore scored on a couple of zingers but Warner was great, not allowing himself to get pulled into the defensive position. However, I still don't get where Warner's advisors are going with all of this - the only way Warner can get beat is to screw-up in one of these debates. Refusing to debate never got a candidate beat, but debating poorly has crushed many. I don't get it. |
