Now, I love my man G dubya but I never said he was a great speaker. I am wondering if he consulted with a publicist. If I was his adivser, I would never have agreed to this. Bill Clinton is the Mike Tyson of orating.
Bill Clinton and George. W. Bush have agreed to a smackdown at Radio City Music Hall.
Well, there is not likely to be any head butting, but the two former presidents have agreed to debate foreign policy, economics and other issues of the day on the same platform on Feb. 25, 2010, according to MSG Entertainment, which bills the event as "The Hottest Ticket in Political History."
The debate, which will include a question-and-answer segment with an as-yet unnamed moderator, is part of MSG's speaker's series known called "Minds That Move the World."
Melissa Ormond, MSG's chief operating officer, says the event will be "an informative and empowering experience" that will also " encourage people to engage in continued dialog surrounding the most significant current events of our day," The New York Daily News reports.
While the two former presidents have shared a stage before, in Toronto in May, the Radio City Music Hall will be their highest profile venue.
Tickets will range from $60 to $1,250, with the upper-end including a cocktail reception before the event.

Mike Tyson of orating??? I couldnt disagree more... Clinton has a hard time keeping his foot out of his mouth... And next to W I think he'll look foolish...
I think this will end with W shaking his head and laughing at good old Bill making his usual a$s out of himself...
responses like "that depends on what your definition of is is" never come from the mouths of the great oraters...
Being a great liar doesnt make you a great speaker...

If it was to happen, who outside of us would determine who won? I think many said that Kerry won the debate when he faced Bush. Who is official really at calling the outcome?
