When I had some spare time this weekend after reading about this, I found the transcripts of the 3 debates on Keyes website and skimmed all three and didn’t see any sort of exchange like this.
I’m still hoping somebody, somewhere in the good ole USA will have standing with the SCOTUS. This whole thing just makes me mad.
Did they throw out Keyes' lawsuit? What about Donofrio's?
As much as I’d welcome the cited exchange from the story I think, we are led to believe this happened during something like a commercial or a camera break. It may have but we need something more than at least the story I have heard that it seems like it was said off-camera. If there are other witnesses, those would work well. You’d think for a debate between Senate candidates, a recording would be running the whole time.
