Debates

The first primary debates in New Hampshire will be April 4 and 5. This is really a chance to get beyond the stereotypes and the silly stuff, and to showcase who she is. The debates for the Senate were the first time that people saw her break out of their perceptions as just Bill's wife. When she remained calm with Lazio trying to badger her, it really showed people that she could hold her own. Now, probably the top Democrats aren't going to make the same mistake, but it'll give people a chance to see her unvarnished. Hopefully it'll be a chance for a real discussion of the issues and our values as a party.
