Bloomberg and Thompson Spar in First NYC Mayoral Debate

Thompson has no chance of winning in November. And he doesn't deserve to win.

in reference to:

"In general, the mood inside the museum’s auditorium — where 582 tickets had been handed out — was rather rough-and-tumble. Early in the debate, a heckler jeered the mayor, interrupting the discussion. And while Bloomberg supporters in the crowd tried their best to clap loudly when the mayor made a point, supporters of Mr. Thompson repeatedly interrupted. At one point, when Mr. Bloomberg said, “I’m not out there buying votes,” one man shouted, “Yes, you are.” The disruptions got to the point that Mr. Carter warned that the police might have to be called in to remove unruly members of the audience."
