Parker challenges Akin to debates

By Antonio D. French

Filed Friday, March 31 at 8:34 AM

State Rep. Sherman Parker (R-12) says he has sent a registered letter to Congressman Todd Akin (R-2) requesting a series of four debates prior to the August primary.

"With the primary taking place in a little over four months, the voters deserve to know how we stand on issues important to the second district and nation. I look forward to hearing from the Akin campaign soon," said Parker.

Parker recently shocked many in his party -- not once, but twice -- by filing against Akin in the primary election, and then announcing that he had already raised over $100,000.

I almost thought that you had mistakenly used a photo of Francis Slay in this post until I looked closer. Man, Akin and Slay look alike!
