I couldn't get this classic Dr. Suess story out of my head back in late spring, when Obama kept dodging the offer of townhall debates offered by John McCain. With respect to the wonderful Dr. Suess, I enjoyed tweaking his classic story, just a bit. Since this week's debate is in the townhall style, I wanted to share this with you.
