I'm betting that my readers would like to see Kerry and Edwards go head-to-head in a couple of TV debates betwen now and Super Tuesday. I know I would.

"Opie" is eager to do it -- he'll even accept "Don King" and "the Chipmunk" up there with them. But "Lurch" realizes he's got little to gain and a lot to lose, and so he's dragging his feet.

If you'd like to turn up the heat on Sen. Kerry about this, go here.
