If McKinney does not show, she must have internal polling showing that she is far ahead.

And if she wins, I have zero hope for the voters in her district -- and eventually, for America.

Amen!

We, the electorate, get what we deserve.

From this evening's 11Alive News (WXIA/Atlanta):

Former state court judge Denise Majette sent Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga) an invitation for a debate in the Democratic primary race for Georgia’s 4th Distric.

A Majette campaign representative delivered a letter to McKinney’s headquarters Tuesday. The McKinney campaign refused to respond to the debate challenge unless Majette answered to allegations that she lied about hiding trial transcripts during a case that she presided over.

Additionally, McKinney’s father, State Representative Billy McKinney, said his daughter does not need to debate a woman he called an unknown in the primary race.

“No one in DeKalb County knows Majette. Everyone across the country knows Cynthia McKinney, why should she debate a nobody in this race?” he said.

Laz, it may be that Queen Cynthia might be asked some awkward questions about receiving money from some radical Muslim group members on 9/11, about her accusing President Bush of knowing about 9/11, her support for Robert Mugabe, her support for Louis Farrakhan, her support for the Palestinians, her antisemitism...I could go on, but you know Jihad Cindy doesn't want to be put on the spot.

I hope she doesn't show. Majette can debate an empty chair & get loads of publicity.

I certainly agree about the no hope for voters in her district. But the eventually for America remark is totally off base. That district, or any one district, has no bearing on the overall thought or quality of people in America. That's a real stretch.
