No Time to Debate

Leonard Boswell is still apparently too busy to debate Ed Fallon before the Democratic primary in the 3rd Congressional District. A bunch of lefty groups are putting together a forum next Wednesday. Fallon will be there. Boswell won't. An empty chair will take his place. Here's the latest press release to demonstrate the Congressman's busy-ness:
