Republican Jeanine Pirro, behind by double digits in the polls, focused on experience in today's attorney general debate - or what she sees as her opponents lack of experience.

Pirro and Democrat Andrew Cuomo squared off this morning on WABC-TV.

WABC reporter Dave Evans' blogged summary of the debate and the WABC podcast are available here.

Pirro tried to highlight Cumo's lack of prosecutorial experience, while Cuomo argued the Pirro is not nearly as tough as she says she is on her two cornerstone issues - jailing sex offenders and hunting down Medicaid fraud, as reported on the New York Times' Web site.
