We all know what will happen though. The media will dog PJB like crazy (they already do, of course) about why he isn't debating. It'll be 24/7 non-stop coverage of why Biden isn't debating. Our side always has to play by different rules. HRC spends all day masterfully taking questions about Benghazi. Their side pleads the fifth 400 times. Our side gets hammered no matter what we do. Their side gets treated with kid gloves.
