Good for them!

I support Obama, but I did always wonder what a debate without the three of them would be like. Maybe we can now hear the other candidates a little more than we have had the pleasure to.

the biggest loser will be the perky one...Katie would have more viewers in one night than she has since she left Matt

Hillary's plan worked on Edwards even though the debate would help him and hurt Hillary by bringing otu the truth on CBS a non cable station so even the poor could watch.

Hillary has suffered from being outed on cable
and she can't let her right wing anti-working class stance be made generally known.

SAD.

Top Two Dems And Republican Lite Now Refuse To Cross Picket Line For Debate

There I fix the title 4 U.

It would be interesting to see if the repub candidates would cross the picket line. What am I saying, Mario Adretti never crossed a line as fast as they would.

Regardless of whether the individual candidates agree with crossing a picket line or not:
The candidates made their 'decisions' after a meeting where the pros and cons, as well as what the other candidates were doing, was discussed in detail in a sort of round table format. Then a carefully worded decision was made and released to the press at a predetermined time.

Sometimes I really feel they can all f themselves but I'm not angry or anything.

Solution,,,Both Parties.. have legit debates with legit hosts at legit venues...i.e league of women voters on PBS...no dog and pony shows, none of this crap where the hosts become the issues . Keep the debaters from spewing monologues after each question and no applause signs and no plants or orchestrated skits. And Keep the candidates in their seats without standing up and roaming the dance floor.

I'm all for unions, but not to the detriment of the democratic process.

I guess the Americans are supposed to sacrifice having any more televised debates (and forego learning more about our Presidential candidates) so that the union is put in a better negotiating position?

The American voter is TOO uninformed to deny them the opportunity to see their candidates debate. Our "democracy" takes another hit.

2nd tier candidates are squirming around trying to decide if they should:

A. Take part in the debate to prop up their poll numbers, at the expense of workers fighting for better rights.

B. Not take part in the debate to support striking workers and spend more money for commercials in Iowa knowing that they have limited campaign funds.

Hmmmmm... decisions, decisions.

"The Peru FTA is not a step in the right direction; for the most part, it's just more of the same. The fact that 116 Democrats — a majority of the party — voted against the Peru FTA shows that this agreement is not an acceptable "new model" of trade, and that we have a lot of work ahead of us to create a framework for trade that is acceptable for people here and abroad. Our Rep. Roy Blunt did the wrong thing by voting for the Peru FTA. He needs to know that we are watching what he does, and we want our representative to vote in our interests. Expanding NAFTA is definitely not in our interests"

Someone mentioned the $400 haircut.

Why does this stupidity bother people, when Laura Bush wears $10,000 ball gowns for one night? And the president and his friends, wear suits that cost very nearly as much. People in the US have this stupid idea that a $400 haircut is bad, but a half-billion dollar bridge to nowhere is the sign of a politician working for his community.

Cheney is such a vile excuse for a human being.

He thinks he's so sheik.

But, if anyone saw his frail ass dishonoring the vets on Veteran's Day, it's clear all his criminal ways are taking their toll.

He looks more unhealthy than Bin-livin-in-caves-Laden.

Hillary can't control Globalization either.
She could vote against the Peru, NAFTA like trade deal, but she won't.

In fact let me check to see if that has been voted on!

Hey Sam, I like the way you have it worded that, "her CHIEF OPPONENT for the nomination, Sen. Barack Obama", and then "finally former Sen. John Edwards....", as tho he hardly even counts in this race. What the hell is that all about? Why are you promoting the disingenuous Ms. Clinton?
