Okay Timber, everything about that link creeps me out. In fact, I think I'll dress as Alan Keyes for Halloween. I'll need a red sweater...
Check out his activism list.

First on the list? Get Alan Keyes' program on primetime! MSNBC didn't put it there because of radical muslim and homosexual groups, not because it's attempting to be a semi (by cable standards) legitimate news channel.
Declaration Alliance - Make all Texas students say the 56 word "We hold these truths" bit every day! Because THAT's what's wrong with our education system. Not enough indoctrination.
and my favorite: Conservative Petitions, which has three, count em three petitions that accuse liberals of treason or demand censure. "Demand 249 turncoats in Congress and the liberal media stop risking our soldiers by politicizing the war in Iraq." What's that, like every Democrat in congress? lol.
Very important things that need public support there. I hope he, and any congressional contender who would connect him/her self to these 'issues' would lose. Soundly.
On the debates, I saw a poll on ABC world news (whatever it's called specifically) that the percentage of people who think the debate isn't at all important is up to 47% (or close to that) from 28% in 2000. 19% will rely on it to decide which candidate to vote for. (I don't recall the exact numbers or wording - it was unprinted and yesterday).
