An Interesting Townhall Debate Idea

Republican presidential nominee, Sen. John McCain has invited/challenged his Democrat opponent, Sen. Barack Obama to a series of 10 townhall style debates. To date, Obama has rejected this idea. Earlier today in the comment section in another blog (Baseball Crank) I saw a great idea for McCain.

McCain ought to hit the campuses with a chair next to him upon which is a suit folded neatly.

He can explain that the empty suit is the closest he can come to getting his opponent to show up and debate him. And really what's the difference between the empty suit and Obama.

Unfortunately, McCain is unlikely to take that aggressive an approach. Then again, if Obama keeps sending folks out to denigrate McCain's military service maybe McCain will get angry enough to fight.
