Obama AND Hillary to skip Fox Debate.
The headline in LBN changed. Fox is revealed for what it is by Edwards, Obama, and Hillary.

Obama, Clinton to skip Fox-backed debate

WASHINGTON - Barack Obama (news, bio, voting record) and
Hillary Clinton will not participate in a Democratic debate co-hosted by Fox News Channel this fall, campaign aides indicated Monday.

The decision by the two Democratic presidential candidates follows an announcement last week by
John Edwards, another White House contender, that he would forgo the Fox event.

2. Why is Hillary against debating?
She did not even want to debate her Democratic challenger Tassini in the last election. Come on, Hillary! What are you afraid of?

5. She's against Fox News just like Obama, Edwards, and other responsible Democrats
Fox News is nothing more than right wing propaganda and we should avoid it like the plague. Kudos to Senator Clinton and other responsible Democrats for boycotting them.

9. and good for her because of it
I'm glad Hillary got smart and dropped those freaks. Did she expect they would treat her fairly? She's a smart person, I have a hard time believing that.

4. I cant see the sense in Democrats debating each other
especially on Fox. Why should they give Fox the satisfaction of democrats airing their dirty laundry. It is obvious that the Fox network backs the republicans, so why let them "divide and conquer" the democrats. Give that network NOTHING.
