And speaking of debates, when I talked to Representative Hunt earlier this week, he was. He seemed frustrated at the lack of cooperation on debates. What is your response to that? Well, Nobody really knows who he is outside of his congressional district, and this is an effort by him to get some visibility. And I just don't see any point in wasting the time debating with Congressman Hunt since his candidacy is not going to survive the March 3 primary because then there'll be a runoff, of course, between me and the attorney general.
