Well, 1 of them obviously does. I don't think the others would agree. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 17, 10:26
In 2007 the Dems had 8 debates by this time. (Though I am thankful for them not drawing out this year) -- nm - Roger More Sep 17, 10:21 5
- And those debates started way too early as well. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Sep 17, 10:57 1
  - Hey, I'm north of the border so you're preaching to the converted. Canadians freaked out at a campaign that lasts a whole 11 weeks! - Roger More Sep 17, 11:02
- Is this a typical trend of incumbent vs challenging party? -- nm - psilotum Sep 17, 10:34 2
  - I don't think it's so much that as just a function of how crowded the field is. -- nm - Ender Sep 17, 10:42
  - That was my theory too, but haven't researched it. -- nm - mara Sep 17, 10:39
