If Dean and Edwards drop out, Kerry will become the nominee-apparent. But DK and Sharpton have promised to stay in until the convention. Should the DNC have more debates between the three of them.

1. absolutely
Those two can speak out and say all the things about Bush that would be hard for the nominee to get away with.

I want as many Americans as possible to hear and know Dennis Kucinich.

6. I don't thing Kerry would want Kucinch or Sharpton to drop out.
They are able to attack in ways the front runner has to avoid.

8. Hey, don't kick out Edwards. I like him. Those debates would be great
though. Very anti-Bush.

9. No one would air the debates, and it wouldn't work.
The canidates couldn't spend time and money on a debate that the media an public will ignore. Not many will be interested in a DK, AS, JK debate even though I'd like to see it.

Hopefully JE, and HD will stay in the race until mid march (being very civil) to keep media attention on all the canidates and their issues.

11. Yes. Until there's only one left then there should be debates
Let's give the people a choice now.
