Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, once so eager to debate she ran two ads questioning why her rival wouldn't, has yet to say whether she'll debate Sen. Barack Obama in North Carolina next month.

Both presidential candidates plan to participate in an ABC News debate on April 16 in Philadelphia [...]

Clinton ran a statewide television ad in Wisconsin prior to its Feb. 19 primary challenging Obama to debate there as she struggled to regain momentum after his string of victories in February.

The Clinton ad said, "Barack Obama still won't agree to debate in Wisconsin ... Why won't Barack Obama debate these differences? Wisconsin deserves better."

Good. I'm sick of debates. Even if she's a hypocrite about it.

And I doubt voters will care. Obama still won Wisconsin easily. They're sick of debates as well. There's been 20 of them, if you can believe it.
