10. It's a shame, Kerry attended via satelite when he was out of state.
I wish Clark would attend.

9. I'll probably be skipping this one because
Edited on Sun Jan-11-04 05:49 PM by the populist
I don't feel like watching candidates pander to minorities with MLK paraphrasing and "affirmative action" propagandizing for 2 hours.

It's just so insincere.

EDIT: my decision is based on the assumption that it will be a weak debate with no attacks against each other. Am i wrong?

15. Might be nasty
Faux revealed reports Gep attended Klan function in his early years,so some one wants to stir it up. As far as Clark, He won the last Iowa debate he attended according to Des Moines paper and probably would have gotten endorsement instead of Edwards as their reasons for endorsement could apply to him also. Since he is not campaigning there he will be at next debate where he is campaigning. If something interesting happens I will hear about it and catch it on the rerun.

17. How many debates will Clark sit out should he be the nominee?
He's not taking things anywhere near as seriously as he should.
