Hyde-Smith Won’t Debate In Mississippi Senate Race

Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS) told the Jackson Clarion Ledger that she doesn’t plan to debate her opponent in her re-election bid, citing a busy schedule and “stark, drastic” differences between herself and Mike Espy (D) that she believes voters already know about.

Said Hyde-Smith: “To be honest with you, the debate about debates, that is something that losing candidates and reporters care about.”
