Ohio debates next for candidates

I knew I heard Wolf Blitzer say something about Ohio debates on February 27 and 28.

From Political Ticker:

CNN announced Thursday that it will partner with the Ohio Democratic Party and the Ohio Republican Party for back-to-back presidential debates at the end of February.

With the race for each party nomination likely to extend beyond the February 5 Super Tuesday contests, it’s increasingly possible the critical battleground state of Ohio – which holds its presidential primary March 4, along with three other states — could very well determine the 2008 Democratic and Republican nominees.

The Democratic debate will take place Wednesday, February 27, while the Republican debate will follow on Thursday, February 28. The network said further details will be released soon.

Put me in, coach! Holly – wanna meet at the debates?

NB: Thanks for adding Ohio to the primaries list, Admins!

    It seems likely that the nominations of both parties will be sewn up by then, meaning that each debate will be one-person shows.
