Either the Fox News or NBC forum would be the first debate for the primary opponents since the two Republicans launched their respective candidacies to represent Florida in the U.S. Senate. Democrat congressman Kendrick Meek will be the probable general election opponent for the eventual GOP senatorial nominee in November. The Republican primary will be held on August 24th.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter almost a year of ducking Marco Rubio\u2019s debate challenge and less than 24 hours after insisting the first debate not be held on FOX Network, Charlie Crist has once again changed his mind by agreeing to debate first on FOX News Sunday on March 28.<\/p>\n
\u201cMarco Rubio looks forward to finally debating Charlie Crist on FOX News Sunday and hopes it will be the first of many high-minded debates about Florida\u2019s and our nation\u2019s future.\u00a0 If there is interest by Meet the Press in doing a debate after FOX, we happily accept that invitation as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cCharlie Crist is a practiced\u00a0and skilled debater, but Marco Rubio looks forward to focusing this race away from the process and politics and onto what really matters: the policies and ideas that will best steer this country back to the limited government ideals on which it was founded.\u201d<\/p>\n
