Dems Call Off Plans for Presidential Debate in N.C.

It’s official: Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton will not debate in North Carolina.

The N.C. Democratic Party just announced that it is cancelling the presidential debate that had been proposed for April 27 in Raleigh.

The party said there were “growing concerns about what another debate would do to party unity” and also cited “time constraints and logistical issues associated with such a large, national event.” Of course, when one candidate won’t agree to debate, that’s a pretty big “logistical issue.”

If I was Obama, I wouldn’t show up for another Debate either. Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton , a Constitutional Attorney, would again make a damn fool out of him.
