of debate will be and how difficult it will be for rMoney to use them to wiggle out.

October 3, 2012: Romney backs out, cites family emergency.

October 11, 2012: Romney backs out, cites family emergency and health issues.

October 16, 2012: Romney backs out, cites family emergency, health issues and bad weather.

October 22, 2012: Romney backs out, cites family emergency, health issues, bad weather and a dog eating his notes.

Or, put another way (skip to 5:22):

?t=5m22s

Perry did it down here in Texas. He laid out specific conditions that had to be met to the Bill White campaign, and when Mayor White met his conditions Perry still didn't debate. Not once! Republicans here were ok with that too.
