The issue here is that we need to have Obama out there more than ever before. We need less debate and more time to campaign. Time is running out.. . This is a waste of time. I think this is a trick to keep Obama away from the voters. We all know that one debate a week requires two days of preparation and that means that Obama will have no more time to campaign.

The fact is that the more voters got a chance to see Obama campaigning and firing up the crowd, the more votes he tends to get.

Please do not fall for that — this is just another way to derail Obama off this message and to suppress this momentum

What Hillary really wants is more campaign cash. If she had the money that Obama has, she wouldn’t be seeking the free exposure that debates would generate. There’s a note on Drudge indicating that the Clintons may be dipping into their personal finances at this point.

I say, “Obama, don’t let Hillary determine the direction of your campaign.”

Obama has improved in his debate performance after each one – Hillary is the same after each one – not better, not worse – just no change. More debates will only strengthen Obama and help prepare him for the full campaign. It’s a win win for him – no matter what happens today this thing is going to Denver for the decision. The “back rooms” in Denver filled with super delegates will probably vote establishment ……. because that’s them. This means Billary will probably eek out a narrow decision – Obama will almost surely be asked to fill the VP slot. Afterall – Billary needs Obama to win at this stage, but Obama doesn’t need her – so he’s in no matter what – either the top spot or the running mate. In either case he’ll only improve in preparation for the general with more debates. Personally speaking, I really like Obama. He is the first candidate in my memory who I have wanted to vote for – rather than just voting against someone like I normally do. I want to vote for President Obama. If it’s a running mate slot with Billary I just registered to vote third party or went to the Republicans.
