Tammy Duckworth set to debate Joe "Deadbeat Dad" Walsh Friday night

Just posted on Twitter:

"Tammy4Congress Tammy Duckworth
We'll be live-tweeting tomorrow's debate. Use #IL08 to follow the conversation or join in!"
---

Eighth Congressional District contenders Tammy Duckworth, a Democrat from Hoffman Estates and former Obama administration official, and Republican Congressman Joe Walsh, a Tea Partyer from McHenry, plan their first debate at 6 p.m. Friday, May 11, on CLTV.

The 8th District race is expected to be one of the hottest races leading up to the Nov. 6 election. It is at the very top of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s list of 25 “key races” it hopes will help Democrats take back the House majority.

Friday’s debate will also be available on WGNTV.com and on CLTV.com.

People can suggest questions for the candidates in advance via Twitter @politicstonight or Facebook at facebook.com/politicstonight.

It's what he does every time he starts losing an argument.
