What a joke. I'm not one to watch the debates anyway, but this is just absurd.
I wasn't looking forward to the debates because neither of them will address the issues as much as they will attack their opponents on the issue. I would want to here what Kerry plans to do about the Social Security system instead of listening to him crow about what Bush DIDN'T do or what he DID do wrong.
Of course, the whole purpose of counter-arguments and follow-up questions is to allow each candidate a chance to respond to the charges leveled by his opponent. Some character assassination will naturally occur in that setting - but it is still FAR preferable to the scripted dialogue that will be billed as the Presidential Debates this election year.
