LOL. So because he has nothing to gain, we should just excuse him from debating? Because he's above all this? Or is it because he has no brains left and he cant carry a conversation without a teleprompter, much less face the world to tell bold lies and try to pass them off as truth? Maybe someone could help him out by saying answers into speaker and have George wear ear phones then relay an intelligent answer to him.

The claims he's an awful public speaker, or an idiot are always going to come back to haunt his opponents. Not only will they underestimate him, he only has to really perform half as good as his opponent to appear to be equal. That's the type of hole the Democrats have dug for themselves.
The real fact is that Bush has nothing to gain from these debates right now, so why the hell should he risk it? That would just be dumb.

How come Bush is all of a sudden allowed to even think of the notion of backing out of even one debate, while if a non-Republican were to do that, they would be ridiculed for being a pussy and would be forced to in the end. This is rediculus, the media should be all over this criticizing Bush of this comment. I don't think any other President has ever backed out of even one debate (please correct me if I'm wrong). Makes me sick.

The idiot claims are completely baseless. He's already beaten better Democrats in debates before, something you guys like to ignore. If Bush is so dumb, why did he easily handle Gore? Why has he continously shown up the Democrats in this election...?

LMAO well how long is he going to wait? Geese the election is like right around the corner....is he waiting to see the whites of Bush's eyes or what? Why wait if this ammo is so effective...why not use it NOW instead of later if it was really that good?
Kerry I suspect has a lot of hidden ammo just waiting for the right moment.
Yeah but he would also save Kerry a lot of $$$.
If Bush would just show up, he would save quite a bit of face with people....
I agree with the President. Three is just too much. Two or maybe just one debate is more than enough.
