That's a desperation shot.

Isn't that what just about every eventual loser does?

"There will be a time for debates after the convention, and during the next few weeks, John Kerry should take the time to finish the debates with himself,"

And they say Bush and his people are dimwits . . . . .

Kerry obviously has all sorts of time on his hands to debate with himself and others. President Bush has a REAL JOB and actually shows up on a regular basis.

He wants to get some media attention other than that surounding the Swiftvet controversy.

He can't get his campaign back on track and hopes that this might help.

He wants to call Bush a coward for not doing things as planned...having fall debates.

Of course, none of these plans will work because Bush won't agree.

Didn't Keyes just challenge Obama to a series of debates and Obama said "no".

If it wasn't Keyes, who was it that just tried this tactic?

But Kerry takes both sides of every position so why does he need President Bush? He can debate himself. "I voted for the war before I voted against it." LOL

Obama had said he'd debate the Republican nominee 6 times. When Keyes became that nominee, Obama "changed his mind" to only 3 debates.

This is the Bush camp's response to Kerry wanting debates..

There will be a time for debates after the convention, and during the next few weeks, John Kerry should take the time to finish the debates with himself. This election presents a clear choice to the American people between a President who is moving America forward and a Senator who has taken every side of almost every issue and has the most out of the mainstream record in the U.S. Senate," said BC'04 spokesman Steve Schmidt.

This left a mark...

Kerry is very ill - honestly, he has a physo condition, definately - his words and demands of an insane going person...he is not President material - he is trippin.! The house of cards is falling, and he is grasping straws.

Kerry must think the job of the Presidency is as leisurely as his absentee career in the Senate. He may be shocked to learn that between campaigning for re-election and performing all the duties of his office, Bush has no time left over for 2 months of weekly debates with Kerry.

So when his campaign collapses, will it be Hillary or will the Dems just concede the election? or, as in Missouri in 200, will a vote for Kerry be a vote for Teresa?

They've got their candidate and unless he dies or suffers something like a debilitating stroke, Kerry is in this for the duration. No major party has ever withdrawn from a presidential election.
