Since Bush is following Kerry all over the country
Imagine the news event if Kerry delayed or made a U-turn and crashed one of Bush's appearances.
Just think! He walks through the crowd (no doubt it would part and create a path) and up the steps waving to Bush, shakes his hand, and says "Let's talk about the issues".
If the crowd boo-ed or jostled Kerry, the Republicans would look sick.
This is just exactly the unscripted event that would throw Bush completely off-stride. The media would have a field day and the Rove machine wouldn't be able to spin it.
I see it as a win-win for Kerry. Bush can only lose in such a real (non-structured) debate. What is it with modern politicians that they can't just stand side by side on a stage and debate. If Lincoln and Douglas could do it for hours on end and for day after day, surely our modern day politicians (some of them anyway) could do a modest version thereof.
6. People complained about Kerry & Edwards being too close. With Bush...
...stalking Kerry like this, it makes you think Kerry might want to get a Temporary Restraining Order...especially if he starts to get phone calls traced back to AF1 from a heavy breather.
