sigh. Okay. Kerry campaign obviously knows Kerry can't listen to his hidden ear-mike (from his coaches) while simultaneously wondering if the blinking light is a supercoded message from his UN pals. No problem. Place the light on Kerry's tie pin.
One of the things he insisted on was that Bush NOT use a riser; now when has Bush ever done that?
It just goes to show how fixated he is on appearance.
And the other thing he insisted on was that HIS dressing room be the same SIZE and QUALITY as the president of the United States.
Go ahead. That won't distract attention from the screwball you're bringing.
Evidently during debate practice Kerry could not keep his yammering down or clearly frame his positions in the time alloted. Heh Heh!! This is a very good sign.
This means that John F'n has not been able to limit his answers to less than two minutes in the practice debates.
This means that John F'n is going to try to rush his answers and will not be able to use his charactersitic fog o' nuance technique to avoid answering questions.
This means that John F'n will be facially paralyzed, orange, and off his game.
I'm smellin' a blowout, here...

Let them. Then Bush should mention it tonight at every opportunity.
As I suggested on another thread, he should go way overtime on his first answer, and when Lehrer stops him, look around in mock surprise and say "Sorry Jim, I thought we were supposed to have timing lights. Someone steal 'em?"
"Commission on Presidential Debates cancels debate due to Kerry's unwillingness to follow simple rules.
Kerry agreed to the rules, before he didn't."
Kerry makes a good point here...probably the point he's made clearly during the entire campaign.
The problem with the lights is that he knows we are keeping score, so every tiem he speaks over the limit, it will look bad because everyone else will know he's over time.
They've done nothing but whine about the rules all day long. Maybe yesterday too, but I wasn't home most of the day, so I didn't hear. Someone needs to bring a diaper bag for the crybaby(s).
"Why don't they mount Kerry's light on top of his head. When it comes on, it will appear that he actually has an idea!"
LMAO!! That would be the first time he ever had an idea of his own!!
But that was before he disagreed with them.
This is a strategy of some kind . . . I can't put my finger on what the Kerry camp is trying to do . . . perhaps just create a chaotic/disrupted micro-environment in the hours before the debate . . . but I guarantee there is something intentional going on here . . . it may also be a precursor, setting the stage for planned chaos/disruption in the election itself . . .
If Kerry and his team don't want to follow the rules they agreed to, replace him with Nader. Democrats need to lose something they value whenever they cheat, otherwise they will never stop doing it.
I was wondering what the FIRST rule was that the Kerry folks would break. It won't be the last.
I agree with you; and that team he has behind him now is so politically tin-eared, they just might go for the gold, something dramatic.
The problem is that everybody KNOWS the rules now....and if he breaks them, people will see he's coloring outside the lines.
I frankly PRAY he does something like this.
another flip-flop
Yep. That's going to be a biiiiiiig problem for him. I don't think he can do it, frankly. Or do it frankly. (ha ha - get it?) Even if he manages the time thing, no one will understand his big words & long drawn out sentences. I think Bush will win handily, like he won the Gore debates (well, I only saw two of those I think; I think Bush won both of those).
