The Debate Debate, Continued
Yesterday, Nassau County Executive Thomas Suozzi issued another debate challenge to Attorney General Eliot Spitzer as the two continue squaring off for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination, calling Spitzer, "Mr. Tough Guy." Today, Suozzi followed up with another letter to Spitzer proposing a whole series of dates and places for the two to meet, head to head, and debate it out. He writes: You may prefer a coronation to a competition, but our State suffers when we perpetuate a system in which more voters watch a fictional debate on "The West Wing" than observe an open, honest discussion of the issues between two real candidates for major office. We complain about voter apathy, but how can we hope to engage the electorate if we won't even engage each other? You can read the full letter here. By Ed Moltzen · 3 May 2006
