[laughs] Um, Republican friends, do you guys have any thoughts about kind of limited amount of debates so close to the election? I mean, that's-

Well, I, I can, uh, speak from being a candidate, and Craig, you were a, a candidate, uh, last, uh, election cycle it sounds like.

Um, you know, there, e- especially in a statewide race where we're so close, um, I, there's a nervousness about you have more to lose than what you might actually pick up or, or appeal to people by being in, in a live debate.

And so that's why I think you're seeing, um, more, less debates and candidates trying to control more of their own message through social media and, and, and that type of thing.

Um, but interestingly, I w- was at a, uh, campaign fundraiser for a candidate, and, uh, former Congressman John Kline was there.

We had a great discussion, uh, and he's doing well.

Uh, but he shared, uh, his, uh, ideas ab- and, and time when he was, uh, campaigning and had to run three times before he finally won Congress.

So.
