By David Slavin,
Bruce Kluger
Published October 31, 2002 at 10:00 PM MST

Fictional candidates Chuck Zeffirelli and Bob Gunderson square off in a debate over the issues, personal ethics, conduct in office, and whether to attack the Dutch. Sparks fly. Satirists Bruce Kluger and David Slavin take us to the scene.
