Kennedy McCarthy set to face off on ABC debate telecast
Nationally televised clash pits Senator Eugene McCarthy against Senator Robert F Kennedy with Vice President Humphrey as third member in a one hour program. The two candidates will not directly debate but will answer questions from ABC reporters and viewers with immediate rebuttals allowed. The format aims to mobilize support ahead of key state primaries while Kennedy’s camp argues for a straight duel though rules preclude direct exchanges.
