And speaking of debates...

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are the only two Dem candidates who have not agreed to participate in a debate in June in New Hampshire. And the flagship political newspaper in this all-important primary state -- the Union Leader -- is not at all pleased. The paper rips the two in a new editorial today:

We Granite Staters take this tradition seriously. That two major candidates for President have refused the invitation to take part in this process that is so important to New Hampshire and, because of the New Hampshire primary, the country, indicates that perhaps they take the democratic process here, and the New Hampshire primary itself, for granted.

...The people of New Hampshire will remember that when it was time to hold themselves up for a side-by-side comparison with their competitors, Sens. Obama and Clinton considered themselves too important to show up.

Obama and Hillary have both said they'll only participate in DNC-sponsored debates in hopes that the DNC will focus the process, and are urging the DNC to sanction the upcoming New Hampshire one.
