Has Obama responded to Sen. Clinton's call for 4 debates between them?

[journalist3072]

I remember reading yesterday or day before yesterday, that Sen. Clinton is proposing four debates between she and Obama.

Has he responded to that request yet?

[Blarch]

1. She is broke and wants free TV time.

Obama isn't broke. Simple as that.

[Tarheel_Dem]

2. exactly.....Randi just said the very same thing.

Why the hell should Obama help her with her money problems. I also just read a post where some of her staff are "voluntarily" working without pay this month.

[journalist3072]

7. Randi is a paid hore for Obama. She's been doing nothing but horing for Obama on her show. eom

[blogslut]

8. s'matter?

afraid to spell whore?

[Tarheel_Dem]

11. and you've wHored yourself pretty well here on DU for HRC...

Randi is an "opinion" talk show host. You have your opinion, and she has hers. You guys look so silly claiming that anyone who doesn't slobber all over HRC's shoes is somehow anti-HRC. The Clintons are quite wealthy, if they want 24/7 positive coverage, let 'em buy "Hallmark" :rofl:

14. Air America is a PINKO COMMIE RADIO STATION !! Why does she hate Murika????

[Tarheel_Dem]

16. LOL....I'm assuming from the OP's handle that he may be a

journalist? I wonder if it's Paul Krugman? He's really got a hardon for "O".

[Kahuna]

24. Still having problems with spell check, huh?

:rofl:

[TheDonkey]

3. she's desperate and acting pathetic. 4 more debates???? really?? all on FOX I'm sure too

[journalist3072]

6. Yes...I believe the Clinton camp said 4 between now and April-May

Since it's obvious the nomination won't be clear for some time.

[Thrill]

4. Why should he? How did Bush respond to Kerry?

Its a stupid thing to ask for.

[blogslut]

5. Yes. He has

He said no.

[BluegrassDem]

9. The debates also keep Obama away from the campaign trail

Don't do it Barack! Spend those days campaigning!!! Hillary can debate with herself.

[Tarheel_Dem]

12. precisely. Thom Hartmann & David Binder said this today...

he needs to stay on the campaign trail, (that's his strong suit)and let Hillary do the same. Of course, she may have to fly coach.

[burythehatchet]

10. The Clinton Camp can suck a fuggin egg.

Just because she wants to try and bring Fox's prominence back up doesn't mean that any other self-respecting Democrat should. Fox's ratings have fallen on hard times and she wants to help them out.

[sniffa]

13. I think he said, "Your desperation is showing."

Oh, and "Thanks, but no thanks. Just because you managed your campaign finances so poorly, don't come crawling to me for free air time."

[K Gardner]

15. hee hee.. I love it !

[sniffa]

17. My god

I only have a very few of these insufferable Hillary bores not on ignore, yet they're still popping up like weeds. They need to be plucked.

[Tarheel_Dem]

18. LOL.....me too

the OP is one of about three HRC people that I'm not ignoring at the moment. Sure makes for interesting reading, trying to figure out what they said to me....:rofl:

[Kahuna]

29. Me too. I bet I know who the other two are..... They are very entertaining..

aren't they? :rofl:

[Kahuna]

28. We can always use a HORE to weed them...

;)

[Tarheel_Dem]

35. LOL

you said "HORE" to weed them :rofl:

[LadyVT]

19. ? So you don't want people to know what Obama thinks?

Very confusing.

[rhett o rick]

20. Sen Clinton wants to get Obama on her home turf, Fox News.

Damn now I am doing it. But I strongly disapprove of her give any credence to Fox.

[BeyondGeography]

21. She's ready for free air time on Day 1 of being broke

[Hippo_Tron]

22. Why should he agree to four joint press conferences?

[Kahuna]

23. Now we know why she want more debates. Free publicity...:

:rofl: Nice try Hill.

[OzarkDem]

33. Do you get those talking points from Drudge?

or directly from the campaign?

[Mags]

25. yeah, he is very afraid to debate, you know he is not much of a debater.

Just the speeches about "Yes we can" , But won't say what he can do. Go figure

[sniffa]

34. Go figure

[tammywammy]

26. Yes he has

[jenmito]

27. Sadly, he agreed to at least one debate. I think he should've refused ANY debates she wanted.

[MzShellG]

30. He shoudn't waste his time.

What he needs to do is get his message(in person)to as many voters as possible. That's when he does his best and he knows this. The more people see of him in person the more the like him. GOBAMA!!!

[OzarkDem]

31. Obama doesn't do well in debates

Its hard to get the messianic vibe going when you have to answer real questions.

No doubt he will dodge them as much as possible.

[bigtree]

32. Obama would rather rely on his money to represent him

[jenmito]

36. I hope you're not a Hillary supporter making a comment like that...

THAT would be ridiculous.
