It appears that there will be one-on-one Democratic debates in both of the big states voting on March 4.
Barack Obama's campaign announced this afternoon that he has accepted an invitation for a forum sponsored by CNN, Univision, and the Texas Democratic Party on Feb. 21 in Austin.
“We’re pleased that Senator Obama will have the opportunity to debate in Texas and that it will air on Univision, ensuring a wide and diverse audience,” said Obama Texas State Director Adrian Saenz.
Obama and Hillary Clinton had already agreed to debate on Feb. 26 in Cleveland on NBC. That one would be the 20th of the Democratic campaign.



Would like to attend the debate between Obama and Clinton on 02-21-08
in Austin, TX. How do we obtain tickets please.
I am very interested in attending this debate in Austin, TX. Will you please let me know how ? I mean how do I obtain tickets ?
Please send me info to my email a/c given below.
Hillary Knows once people meet Obama they will be hooked, so she is trying to keep him tied up in debates instead of out meeting the people in person.
I'm sorry to hear he has accepted any invitations to debate, but Obama, please keep it to a minimum. The people need your time to know better the next president of the United States.

There are no tickets to the event. It is by invitation only.
By all means, make Obama debate so that the American public can see that he is all smoke and mirrors. He's great at the grand speeches and very mediocre when it comes to answering questions. Hmm, could it be there's no substance to the wonder boy?
I, like everyone else posting here, would despretely love to go to this debate. Please anyone who has any information on how to get tickets please email me. Thank you in advance!

I live here in Austin, and they have already made alot of anouncements that there will be NO public tickets available at all.
There are no public tickets available. You need to find out some way to get them from a UT organization, I believe, is the only way to get in.
they just announced 100 tickets will be available to the public, but have't announced when or how to get them.
Great! Serveral newspaper journalist have stated that the reason Obama wanted to limit the debates is because of Hillary's intelligence advantage and his lack of knowledge and campaign promises that he gives vague answers about funding,implementation etc. His campaign ads here in OHIO are promising he is going to change Washington! When pigs fly! What makes him think he can do it?
What is his stradegy? Nothing but talk, talk, talk. Let's get down to real basics and tell how you plan to do this when no one else has been able to do this before ? Let the voice of experience speak, Hillary knows what she is doing and has been around Washington while MR O -B -O -M - A was going to Muslim school in Africa. I'll bet that's why he does place his hand over his heart for the pledge of alligance .It's because his heart is not in it!

Like everyone else, I would like to get tickets for the debate. How?
Very disappointed that the UT debate is private. I'm surprised that CNN would would chose "intimate setting" over inclusion and that the two democratic candidates would agree! Geesh, I may just have to switch to FOX and vote republican...
I work with a doctor in NYC and hw would like to submit a question for the 2/21/2008 debate. Can anyone tell me how I can submit a question for the debate?
I would love to attend, How do I get tickets?
When a woman can scare a man just by talking then that little puppy needs to get back home to his mama. Sure Barack is scared of debates, he's been running out of speeches to steal. He's offerring "CHANGE"??? Here's 50 cents, get yourself a cup of coffee, you bum!
@ Marcia:
Way to rehash half-baked conspiracy theories that mainstream media has debunked months ago.
----
I find it ironic that the biggest critique of Obama is his mastery of rhetoric and public oration for the following reasons:
1) There's not a lot of substance to the canned talking point from the Clinton camp that Obama is all talk. Come up with something that is original and has some substance.
2) The man inspires people--mostly through his speeches. He is the first politician of my lifetime that not only inspires optimism--and, dare i say, hope--but is so spot on and powerful that people who have never shown an interest in politics before are motivated to take action.
Will the Texas debate on Feb 21st be carried on radio or television?
Does anybody know which station(s). PBS or NPR? and time?
PLEASE, SOMEONE ASK THE CANDIDATES ABOUT HOW THEY WILL STOP THE SECURITY AND PROSPERITY PARTNERSHIP AND THE TRANS TEXAS CORRIDOR/NAFTA SUPERHIWAY TREASON TREATIES.
Also interested in tickets or reservation information. For at least 1 or possibly 4 family members.
Please Respond
GO OBAMA! If she has all this tremendous experience then why hasn't she done more for this country? i.e. she started the health care issue and once paid off by the pharm-companys suddenly the ball is dropped?? the correspondence-documents between her and her hubby Billy when in the white house Bill dirty boy Clinton has ordered not to be released until 2012 again...what are they hiding?? he lied about Monica UNDER OATH so once a liar always a liar. You would think if her experience was as great as she is trying to sell us on then that info would be quite the proof & trump card to put quite a halt on Obama's campaign.????? NO MORE BUSH OR CLINTON LEGACY.....We give them plenty of our hard earned money (taxes), it isn't be allocated properly, noone is being held accountable.
SPENDING IS OUT OF CONTROL. THIS EXPERIENCE AND PREDICAMENT WE ARE IN IS FROM "EXPERIENCED" POLITICIANS - IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL GOERS and WHAT A MESS FINANCIALLY, MORALLY, ETC OUR BELOVED COUNTRY IS IN. GOD PLEASE HELP OBAMA IN GUIDING IT BACK IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
Hey Hill, although we would all like to have healthcare, those without are not being "discriminated" against. It is not a part of our constitution.
Moment of crisis...the Blue Dress
Maybe a nice tool to see where you stand in the political landscape, and to get some oversight in the positions presidential candidates stand for is www.electoralcompass.com.
Obama’s efforts to connect to the Republican Party, specifically Bush, and Dick Chaney, of the Halliburton Company, dates back to the Presidents Grandfather, Prescott Bush, and indeed Chaney was once an executive officer of Halliburton.
The American military pounds Iraq with Artillary, bombs, and the like, destroying large sections of cities, and infra-structures, then Halliburton comes in to rebuild. Halliburton and Halliburton associated companies have raked in ten’s of billions.
Obama is just like the BIG HALIBURTAN. Haliburton has contracted to build detention centers in the U.S. similiar to the one in Quantanammo Bay, Cuba. Halliburton does nothing to earn the Two Dollars for each meal an American Serviceman in Iraq eats.
http://www.halliburtonwatch.org/
Halliburton was scheduled to take control of the Dubai Ports in The United Arab Emiirate. The deal was canceled when Bush was unable to affect the transfer of the American Ports.
Now we see what some might suspect as similiar financial escapading from the Democrats.
Two years ago, Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity gave a $50 million contract to a start-up security company - Companion- owned by now-indicted businessman (TONY REZKO) Tony Rezko and a onetime Chicago cop, Daniel T. Frawley, to train Iraqi power-plant guards in the United States. An Iraqi leadership change left the deal in limbo. Now the company, Companion Security, is working to revive its contract.
Involved along with Antoin “Tony” Rezco, long time friend and neighbor of Democratic Presidential hopeful Barack Obama, and former cop Daniel T. Frawley, is Aiham Alsammarae. Alsammarae was accused of financial corruption by Iraqi authorities and jailed in Iraq last year before escaping and returning here.
LIKE FATHER LIKE SON --
Recently, Obama's campaign staff have been vetted by the IRS to disclose his connection to the criminal money generating underworld. Besides, his connections to the REZCO MAFIA types, his up-coming tax fraud charges — Obama needs to disclose why he is a MUSLIM "PATWANG-FWEEE" and disclose Obama's MUSLIM Farrakhan mob connection to Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ. Its minister, and Obama's spiritual adviser, is the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. In 1982, the church launched Trumpet Newsmagazine; Wright's daughters serve as publisher and executive editor. Every year, the magazine makes awards in various categories. Last year, it gave the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award to a man it said "truly epitomized greatness." That man is Louis Farrakhan. Farrakhan and Chicago's Trinity United Church are trumpeting Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama as the second coming of the messiah. Obama should stop suppoting our intervention in IRAQ. It’s time to introduce this false, fake Xerox - X box Obama and invite the self-indicting thief plagiarizing pipsqueke "GLORK" Xerox - X box to meet the Buffalo "GAZOWNT-GAZIKKA" Police Department Buffalo Creek. He is MAD!!! --
OBAM YOU'RE NO JFK --
"GLORK" Obama looks like Alfred E. Newman: "Tales Calculated To Drive You." He is a MUSLIM "Glork" He's MAD!!! Alfred E. Neuman is the fictional mascot of Mad. The face had drifted through American pictography for decades before being claimed by Mad editor Harvey Kurtzman after he spotted it on the bulletin board in the office of Ballantine Books editor Bernard Shir-Cliff, later a contributor to various magazines created by Kurtzman.
