Orator runs from debates >Obama camp:More ads, fewer debates washingtontimes.com, April 26, 2008 By Christina Bellantoni - Sen. Barack Obama's resistance to his rival's clamor for more presidential debates — and his plan to run TV ads for the remaining nine contests — reveal a campaign strategy focused more on how he personally engages with voters than his policy platform. Since he last met Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton on a debate stage, Mr. Obama has denounced many of that forum's questions as "distractions," and criticized ABC moderators for not asking about the economy until 45 minutes into the program. Mrs. Clinton has traditionally fared better in debates, and is pushing Mr. Obama to meet her on a debate stage before one of the nine upcoming contests. Instead of agreeing to a debate, the campaign is going live with ads in each of the remaining media markets. An Obama aide confirmed the ads will reach voters from Oregon to Puerto Rico, and new ads are already posted in West Virginia and South Dakota. He is also advertising in Indiana and North Carolina.
