Cappiello / Murphy debates

The New Britain Herald's Scott Whipple is reporting that the Cappiello / Murphy debates are being scheduled. The article doesn't mention if Green Harold Burbank will participate.

The one comment that really caught my attention was

"Given that a debate appearance has been scheduled in my hometown of Danbury," Cappiello wrote to Murphy, "I would be happy, in the interest of fairness, to participate in a debate hosted in your adopted hometown of Cheshire

That'd be great to have a debate here in Cheshire. As you could imagine, I would be there asking my question - America has $53,000,000,000,000 in unfunded long term liabilities. What will you do about it? Of course, I've already posed that question to both of them... but I think a lot of other people would be curious to hear their answers.

Or I could ask them about their view on a return to the gold standard as a way to ensure the long term value of the dollar. Hmmm... that could be fun!

Unfortunately, Chris already rejected a Cheshire debate. His spokesperson said a Meriden debate is close enough. Maybe I'll go to the Meriden debate.
