Reply #4: It's another ploy to lower expectations

Have the media think bush don't want to debate.

The Dem's should just leave it alone for now. Bush is brain dead when it comes to policy but he and his team are very slick at manipulating the media. When he does appear on a debate, expectations will be low, then he will appear strong. It's a ploy. Kerry should just leave it be for now.
