YouTube - Nancy Pelosi has time to speak to Microsoft, but not the voters of CA District 8? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tC4xMOwldSk)

Barney Frank has debated... Harry Reid has debated... why not Pelosi? It's time Nancy Pelosi answered to voters instead of special interest groups and debated her opponent, John Dennis.

She should look everyone right in the eye and tell the truth . " I have nothing to gain by debating him and I am going to be re elected regardless of anything ".

Then she could elaborate a bit . " My constituents are stupid Democrats and will do what is needed to support San Francisco Style Socialism "

Isn't it pretty much political campaigning 101 that if you are an incumbant with a decent lead that you should NOT debate because it can only hurt ?

Not defending her...well I guess I am..but still, it's always the candidate who is behind begging for lots of debates for obvious reasons.

At the same time, she said her job (goal?) was to get a democratic majority in the congress. If she thought her ideas were winners she would be want to debate so as to push her ideas nationally.

She clearly takes her voters for granted.

When you say stupid things like: "We have to pass the bill so you can find out what's in it...." Why would she be willing to debate? The woman is an idiot. How she got to that position is beyond me. She didn't do it through intellect, that is for sure.

She clearly takes her voters for granted.

Her district is 9% Republican, 30% Indie, and 61% Democrat.

Republicans rarely get more than 15% of the vote in her district (McCain and Palin got 12%).

None of her Republican opponents has ever received more than 18% of the vote (and that only happened once when she faced a Republican opponent with a Chinese name Republican in a district with an extremely large ethnic Chinese population - usually they get 9-13%- I doubt that John Dennis will get the "Chinese bump").

As I keep telling the folks on the John Dennis board, she isn't worried because she doesn't have to be.

She can't possibly gain anything by debating, so why would she bother?

You said all that and yet managed to ignore the part where I said what she could gain. :confused:
