Who's ducking a Debate? (no, not THAT one)
Okay, as far as we know, the Vice Presidential debate is still on! But, one debate that looks fully deflated is the locally scheduled debate for Harris County Sheriff.
Challenger Adrian Garcia's campaign is accusing embattled Sheriff Tommy Thomas of ducking this week's planned debate sponsored by the League of Women Voters. It's set to air on Channel 8, the PBS station. Apparently, Garcia's folks says Thomas is claiming to be too busy with the Hurricane Ike recovery efforts to attend the debate.
Not so, says the Thomas campaign. The Sheriff's spokesperson told me over the phone that he never agreed to the debate because there was a scheduling conflict. She said the Sheriff had Sheriff duties to attend to, and was willing to debate on a different date. Besides, she says, Thomas can't really duck a debate he never agreed to in the first place.
Um... okay.. come to think of it, I did see Sheriff Thomas at Transtar the Friday before Hurricane Ike.
So will the two men meet face to fact? Let's hope so, and soon!
