Mark your calendars. I'll still be very surprised if Bush agrees to debate anybody more than once (if that) and I will be even
more surprised if the format allows anything other than Bush reciting memorized platitudes and yuk-yuking it up with the moderator.

That will be the moment that Democrats appreciate Howard Dean's aggressive criticism of Bush. Does anyone think Dean is going to pull a Joe Lieberman and politely enable Bush? Or do we know that our one-time wrestler is going toss Bush to the mat?
