In the latest chess move of the highly competitive fight for the Democratic presidential nomination, Illinois Sen. Barack Obama has decided to unilaterally refuse to participate in additional fall debates and forums with his rivals.
In a posting on the campaign's website, Obama's campaign manager David Plouffe said that the eight additional debates to which his candidate has already agreed are sufficient, and that Obama wants to spend time talking to voters, rather than preparing for and participating in debates. "Unfortunately, we simply cannot run the kind of campaign we want and need to, engaging with voters in the early states and February 5, if our schedule is dictated by dozens of forums and debates," Plouffe said in his statement.
It's Christmas, Halloween and all major holidays/events and now politics. They start them sooner and sooner. I'm expecting to start hearing Christmas music the day after Halloween. Please.

This is the smartest thing he has said. I hope Republicans do the same. As long as the two percenters in the polls keep getting free face time at these debates, they'll never pull out of the race, So, what we get are lousy little soundbites from everybody instead of fleshed out positions.

By election time everyone will be so sick of them they will not come out to vote. Over-kill.
