Once a yellow-belly, always a yellow-belly

Let's all ask President Bush why? Why are you afraid of undecided voters? We already know the countless stories about every single solitary Bush campaign stop/speech being packed only with strident supporters. Loyalty-oaths for all! Anyway, of the 3 debates proposed by the Commission on Presidential Debates, the middle one is supposed to be town-hall style and take questions from undecided voters. Bush is afraid that some of the "undecideds" may be "partisans." (As if Kerry wouldn't also potentially be affected by same). Well, Kerry's pledged to attend all three debates. Of course. I mean, the guy can think on his feet and knows what he has to say.

The officials said Bush's negotiating team plans to resist the middle debate, which was to be Oct. 8 in a town meeting format in the crucial state of Missouri.
