Stifling Debate

It's hard to imagine how a Fox-sponsored debate would be any better than the farcical ones run by CNN's Wolf Blitzer, what with his grade-school "raise your hand if" questioning and his tendency to monopolize the debate while asking questions primarily of Clinton and Obama.

As was demonstrated last week, Fox News cannot differentiate between Rep. William Jefferson, under indictment for bribery, fraud, and racketeering, and Rep. John Conyers, chair of the House Judiciary Committee. It can't even manage an apology to Conyers that includes his name (the first attempt only apologized for running the wrong video).
