http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/07/06/walsh-duckworth-say-theyll-debate-on-cnn/Republican Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois said Friday he would accept an invitation to debate Democrat Tammy Duckworth on CNN's "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer."
"I'd be happy to come on your show to do a live debate with @Tammy4Congress," Walsh wrote on Twitter.
Shortly before Walsh's tweet, CNN's Wolf Blitzer was interviewing Duckworth on his show and invited both candidates to take part in a live debate on the program.
"We would love to invite you and Mr. Walsh to come on and do a good, serious, substantive debate, no name-calling, no nasty words on either sides, just the substantive, important issues," Blitzer said.
Responding, Duckworth said: "I think that would be great too, Wolf."

I think of him as an emotional batterer. It's a certain type of guy who's hung up on his guy-ness and furious at the world for not giving him what he thinks is his due for his penis-hood. Whether they physically hit is beyond the point. They fit an angry, controlling, abusive stereotype.
And smart women know how to trigger them. They have strings hanging out of them like the pull cords on a talking Cabbage Patch doll.
A guy who shouted at Banfield like he did can be played like a fiddle, if played right. I hope she goes for it.
