Dole and Bowles vs. Informed Voters
The race to succeed Jesse Helms was supposed to come through Greensboro this month for a debate at Guilford College. Now the college has pulled the plug because the candidates are playing games. "'It is clear to Guilford that the two candidates are manipulating a well-crafted debate plan ... for their own purposes and have circumvented a process that would have produced a first-rate, authentic political debate,' the college said in a statement Friday." Either candidate should be an improvement on Jesse, but Bowles might be better for Greensboro because he grew up here. Dole of course grew up in Salisbury but has lived in Kansas and DC for most of her adult life.
