The idea has its merits and its negatives.
I think some people would like it. Sort of a smack talk for P&R, with folks seeing who can accurately and quickly regurgitate their ideology's rhetoric.. And it would be worthwhile for them, I suppose.
Personally, I prefer the long, drawn out discussions that meander. I think it makes people think a little deeper about the topics and and their own positions. I know I've grown a bit more conservative over the years due to those types of discussions as I think about "the other side's" positions more.
That said, I think it is a creative idea and would be worth a try.
