Full Video First U.S. Senate Debate

The “first debate” took place between U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu and State Treasurer John Kennedy yesterday at the Baton Rouge Press Club. I was initially hesitant to characterize it as the “first debate” because it was not open to the public and not broadcast on TV.

However, courtesy of the Times-Picayune, the full video of the debate is available in an embeddable format. I give the Times-Picayune a lot of credit for this innovation and I hope the other media outlets hosting the forthcoming U.S. Senate debates will be equally forward thinking.
