Libertarian Candidates seem to be a major thorn in the ass of the Republican Candidates. Take the Tester/Burns/Jones debate where Libertarian Stan Jones openly talked about impeaching George Bush.
In a local forum here in Tempe, AZ, all the congressional and gubenatorial candidates showed up. The Libertarians got the biggest applause when they were hitting the Republicans on civil liberty, foreign policy, "War on drug", and immigration issues. Of course they looked foolish when they started talking about no regulations for corporations, abolishing the Dept. of Education and pretty much the entire US Government.
Well, the GOP fear of Libertarians is hitting John Kyl this week. Here are the details.
The first Debate between Jim Pederson and John Kyl is being held commercial free tonight on Channel 5 KPHO Phoenix at 4pm.
There are two other debates scheduled, one on Oct. 18 in Tucson and Oct. 20 in Flagstaff.
Details on the Tucson debate are up in the air a little according to Pederson's website. They claim Kyl is pulling out. Kyl claims it's a lie.
What is going on?
