Debate will only be a BOOM for Cruz.
Dehates will be a disaster for the country. The press will pull sound bites from whoever they want to surge and engineer a surge. Meanwhile the candidates like Linda whose sole job will be to bash Cruz will bash Cruz. The press will play those bites too. They will play Cruz bites when he slips up (nobody is perfect).
Debates are a charade and need to be stopped. Debates have brought us from Goldwater to Rockefeller lite.
