Is Hannity Chickening Out Of Rocky Anderson Debate?

[meegbear]

Sean Hannity seems to be sabotaging his scheduled debate with Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson.

Hannity and Anderson are scheduled to debate on May 4th. But, according to Chris Vanocur of local ABC 4 News,

With just two weeks remaining, some of the key details still haven't been agreed on. Although the University of Utah and the Mayor say they're ready to go, little things like tickets and a moderator are still up in the air. And Anderson blames it on Hannity.

"He is the biggest complainer about all of this and yet when it comes to getting him to sign up and say I'll be there, I'm good with all of this, he's nowhere to be found." For more than a month, the mayor's staffers claim they have been sending emails to Hannity. But, they say, they say they have gotten no response.

...As for Sean Hannity, on Wednesday ABC 4 called one of his associates. All we got was a curt 'no comment'.

Maybe Hannity got cold feet after seeing that Anderson will not likely be intimidated by another FOX News bully.

1. If Hannity bails, that will be the second time. What a wimp! He can

dish it out, but one-on-one? Not so much...

2. hannity will wait until he knows his handlers

have bought up enough tickets to hand out to his flock for free.

Anybody know if he will be "debating" Sharpton?

Seems like Hannity doesn't have the cojones to debate anyone other than Alan "The Stepin' Fetchit of Liberals" Colmes.

5. Hannity doesn't want a fair fight, that's why he's on Faux

Hannity likes a "debate" where he controls the microphones, the moderator, the audience, the lighting, and everything else. If he starts to look bad or if he gets his oversized head handed to him, he just says, "Interesting, well, we have to take a break right now," and when the cameras come back on, his adversary is nowhere to be seen or heard. And then Hannity's in his element, debating and arguing with an inanimate object, whether it's piece of videotape or just the fevered imaginings of his own mind.

But a room full of observers, where he doesn't get to just overwhelm with his verbiage and isn't calling all the audio and video shots? There aren't enough Depends in the world to keep Seanie dry and comfortable in the face of that prospect.

7. Hannity is a joke

I can't believe any self-respecting person would listen to his "insight."
