Hillary Clinton Agrees to ABC News' Good Morning America Debate: 'I'll Be There'





Hillary Clinton on Sunday agreed to participate in an upcoming debate hosted by ABC News' "Good Morning America" -- saying in an exclusive interview this morning, "I'll be there."

"I want a debate, and I'm confident that we can work out a time to do that," the Democratic presidential candidate told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos.

"'GMA' offered a debate during 'GMA' on Friday the 15th. I'll be there," she added. "I think it's a great opportunity to reach an audience that may not always be able because of other obligations to tune in to debates."

I live in L A... I will take the Metro and peek into the windows of homes in Hancock Park, Trousdale Estates, and Beverly Hills and see if they are watching GMA. Wish me luck I don't end up in jail, lol.

And I'm sure that automatically limiting the audience is just a bonus.

Then she can schedule the fundraisers for the date she wants.

She can debate herself in GMA, and lose. She already lost by optics.

Getting ready for work and school, etc.

The Morning shows are designed for distracted short-attention span viewing in the background.

Great venue for a debate that requires paying attention.
