Because there haven't been nearly enough Democratic debates.
As Hillary's superdelegates are beginning to desert her, she's shifted rhetorical gears (yet again) as she desperately tries to slow the Obamamentum (I promise I'll never use that word again):
Clinton advisers say that the stakes are so high — in Ohio and Texas in particular — that Mrs. Clinton cannot afford to let Mr. Obama gain momentum. In Wisconsin, for instance, Mrs. Clinton is hoping to stave off a blowout — and perhaps even pull off a surprise — by blasting Mr. Obama for refusing to debate her there.“The last time we debated was in California, and I convincingly won California, which may be why Senator Obama doesn’t want to have a debate in Wisconsin,” Mrs. Clinton said in a telephone conference call with reporters.
Mr. Carson, her spokesman, said she would keep the debate issue alive until Tuesday.
Lee Stranahan channels Hillary's argument. Nicely done.
