I am for the libertarian candidate not being excluded from the debate, that is all.

If the judge forces the debate commission to allow Bednarik and Nader and Peroutka into the debates, the commission will cancel the final debate.

And that will be that.

That would be sad. Wouldn't it? If Bush and Kerry have nothing to fear from these "embarassment" candidates and parties, why would they throw out the debate? just to keep them from being heard? What?

I say cluck cluck cluck chicken!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Exactly what are they scared of?
I hope it IS cancelled. The 2 party debate process is a scripted facade for consumers of bs. I think the people should decide who gets in since it is US these candidates claim to represent. Backing out will only reinforce the lack of accountability of the two party power mongers.
If 3rd party candidates fall flat on their face.....there is no better place than in front of the tv cameras.
Flip floppers should not get all the glory!
