Romney wavering on Florida debates?

And here we thought the big question on debate attendance would be whether CNN lets Rick Perry on stage this Thursday. Byron York reports that Mitt Romney has yet to confirm his presence at any of the scheduled debates in Florida, and the campaign says that’s no accident:
After a debate in which Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney faced attacks from all sides, the Romney campaign says it has not yet accepted invitations to participate in two high-profile debates leading up to the January 31 Florida primary, and a key Romney adviser is expressing fatigue and frustration over what he sees as a never-ending series of GOP debates.

They should hold the debate without Mitt anyway, and simply place a cardboard cut out of him where he would be standing if he attended. No difference whatsoever.
