(5,082 posts)How can she honestly say she won't debate if anyone criticizes her. Unbelievable. Throwing away the country for selfish reasons and giving fake excuses the entire way.

At least you've had debates between Clinton and Sanders, over here Cameron pulled out of a heads of parties debate. That made him look above the affairs of the tiny parties. There were about two head to heads all election. We could have done with a few more.

Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton defended both mailings, calling them "completely accurate" in a statement. He added, We look forward to having a debate this Tuesday on the facts, which he said back the mailers' claims.
