DR, will you be the moderator of a chat debate between candidates?

On a serious note, a debate like that would be an interesting concept, but maybe logistically impractical??.

Cheers,

That would be awesome.

Maybe bring a little levity to the whole thing too, you know?

What do you think Andrew? (maybe you can do the whole debate laying on the hood of a 928?).

Set up one thread.... Have a panel submit a series of questions (say 10 folks here work to come up with a number of questions) and both Andrew and James will be able to have one response to each question in the thread. Close the thread and lock it to the top until the election is over..

Sorry Dave.

With the exception of my annual Montana fly fishing pilgrimage, life is NOT catch and release for me......

A man is required to display honor and dignity in order to elicit respect from me............

James and Andrew are respected members of this community....... good luck in your endeavors, gents.

I can't see any good coming of this election.

I think Andrew and James should have a duel.

We can post the video on OT, for entertainment. The winner gets the presidency.

I'm not sure how well that would go. James (being from TX) has a freaking ARSENAL. So, unless Andrew is a "collector" also, probably not the best idea!

I figured it would even out. It's true that James the,( Texas Terror) is a cowboy and the odds on favorite. But, Andrew is from Michigan, and prolly used to urban warfare, drive by's, life in the getto, that sort of stuff.

Acording to the money line here in Vegas, it's a draw, even money.

I say:" let'em choose their paintball color, take 10 paces, turn and fire."

I'm trying to figure out why anyone would want to change this process. As a non OC member, I'm enjoying the drama. We all know it means next to nothing in the end, but it's still an interesting character study...

However, trial by arms does sound like a lot of fun!!!!



BTW (Good luck to both Andrew and James!!)

Oh sure. Spoil everything with a dose of reality.

We all know reality is just an allusion brought on by a lack of alchohol.

Confucius say,... Always beware of man with one gun vs man with many guns....man with one gun will know how to use it very well, while man with many guns will know how to polish and stare at guns very well.

Unless of course you fear being polished to death or stared at like goat more than being shot :-)

Do you think she will suggest Andrew or James for you to experience that "fate" with??



Not that there's anything wrong with that.... :-)

Andrew, earlier in this thread, DR made mention of term limits. What is your position on implementing term limits or at least not allowing the Pres. to hold office for concurrent terms?
