While the first debate is *suppose* to only be about foreign policy - it appears that Jim Lehrer can do whatever he wants. Copied and pasted the following:
A spokesman for the debate commission, which is a self-appointed creation of former Democratic and Republican officials, said any turn to the economy on Friday would be up to the PBS journalist overseeing the session, Jim Lehrer. "It is and has always been up to the moderator to interpret the scope of the debate within the confines of the first debate being foreign policy and national security," the spokesman, who asked not to be named, said. "The commission has zero role in that."
Apparently, if Lehrer feels that the economy and this bailout has impact in the foreign policy or national security arena, he can do whatever he wants.
What I do find ironic is your line that Obama has avoided the debates. I can only imagine what you would be saying if Obama was the one who went before the press to say the debate should be postponed.
I can just see the posts - Obama is AGAIN avoiding... blah, blah, blah
