But only if they debate fairly.

Have you noticed that when Chris Matthews has his back up, which usually only happens when he interviews conservative women, he uses unfair debating tactics?

The Matthew's Way to Victory:

Step 1: Misinterpret their position so it sounds stupid.

Step 2: As they try to correct your misinterpretation, keep interrupting with more statements about how they are dodging the "hardball questions" raised in step 1.

Step 3: Declare victory when you "forced them to change their position" (which was actually your caricature of their position, and one they never actually believed in to begin with).

He did it to Ann Coulter (on McCarthy) and now just recently to Michelle Malkin.
