I am looking forward to the Terry Branstad-Chet Culver gubernatorial debate on at 7 p.m. Oct. 7 at Coe College. Debates provides the people an opportunity to see the candidates in real forum. One can learn much by observing their poise, their non-verbal communications, body language, their timing, voice inflection., etc., that you cannot get from print
Where is the Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Dave Loebsack debate for 2nd Congressional District? I know Miller-Meeks is ready to debate in every county of the 2nd District. Is Loebsack willing?
Give the public the opportunity to see them both in action.
