Why not?  If anything he splits my base (and vice-versa) more than yours, IMHO.  If that's your final opinion than I am thoroughly disappointed and hope you will reconsider, and I'd hope at least Rowan would debate me then.

I am not at all interested in debating him after being told about his record as Governor.

Nothing says you can't have both a three-man debate and a one-on-one debate with each other.

Also, Andrew might run just because he's the incumbent, now.  Not sure, though.

Really hoping this isn't becoming the 1980 debates....

No; nonserious candidates don't belong in serious debates.

If he's not a serious candidate than you have nothing to worry about, as non serious candidates can't win; if he pulls an upset then he's a serious candidate and you have nothing to worry about.  After all, it is the people who decide who is a serious candidate and who is not....and yes corporations ARE PEOPLE TOO GOSH!

Sorry. I am a firm no and will not be discussing it further. I find it a poor investment of my time and a disservice to my constituents, who don't want to see this race turn into a spectacle.

Really? Rowan should be allowed into the debate. This is a person who did serve as a Senator, Northeast CJO, and Governor. He deserves to be in it. By now allowing it, might cause more people to vote for someone other than you.

The only chance of myself and Rowan debating together relies on Cincinnatus moderating.

I actually agree with Napoleon. Rowan's shown no evidence that he's a serious candidate for the office, and all indications are that this will be the same as when he "ran" against Napoleon in the last Senate election - his name appeared on the ballot, and that was it. There was literally no campaigning whatsoever.

Normally I'd strongly support all candidates being included in a debate. But Rowan, as far as I can tell, is a candidate in name only, just like he was last time.

This should be a debate between the candidates who actually seem to want to be Governor.

I agree Oakvale. When Polnut appointed him GM, he had to remove his name from consideration after it was revealed (by Kal, I think) that his record as Governor was one of chaos.

Rowan has no campaign to speak of. What is there to debate?

My idea was Lincoln-Douglas, no moderators.  Can we please ignore that and allow him to say that, and let the people judge him in their vote.

Lincoln-Douglas is a two candidate debate format, which was my intention, as only two candidates are campaigning. If there is to be a three candidate debate, we'd have to convince The People's Paper to moderate.
