Musgrave-Markey debate strikes softer tone after weeks of harsh attack ads - The Colorado Independent
FORT COLLINS - There was no clear winner. No knock-out punch or defining moment. In fact, it was a surprisingly cordial affair for two campaigns that have been in attack mode for weeks. The gloves were never off long during the first debate between Republican Rep. Marilyn Musgrave and Democrat challenger Betsy Markey on the campus of Colorado State University Thursday night, as the two spent an hour showing voters their softer sides while carefully jabbing the other's character. It was a political waltz of delicate measure.
