Debates urged in Idaho race by Smith
Republican Senate candidate Bob Smith urged face to face debates with Sen. Frank Church and other Idaho hopefuls. He launched a statewide petition drive to push debates, saying the petitions seek debates not support for any candidate. He noted Church is an expert speaker and acknowledged taking a risk by challenging him. Smith also commented on President Ford’s handling of national issues and opposed unconditional amnesty for draftees while questioning conditional amnesty proposals. He offered conditional support for administration policies he agrees with. He argued conservatives oppose extremism from environmentalists and liberals seeking more government.
