Katie must be thrilled that she will now personally be lending her support to Big Labor, a favorite cause of hers and her Dem cohorts.

One woman is certainly thrilled. Hillary Clinton. Now she won’t have to go through another night of scrutiny.

Politico:

The Democratic National Committee plans to announce Wednesday night that it has canceled the final presidential debate in its fall series because of a potential writers strike at CBS News, a sponsor of the debate.

“Due to the uncertainty created by the ongoing labor dispute between CBS and the Writers Guild of America, the DNC has canceled the Dec. 10 debate in Los Angeles. There are no plans to reschedule,” a statement from DNC Communications Director Karen Finney says.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) was the first candidate to say she would not participate if CBS was the target of a strike, which could be seen as crossing a picket line. Other candidates followed suit.

“CBS Evening News” anchor Katie Couric was to be the moderator.

    Damn that George Bush and his war-mongering Global Warming!

    Oh, well … I understand Fox News and Brit Hume might be willing to pick up the load.

    Let me get this straight.

    None of the democrat presidential nominees are capable
    of speaking without a CBS writer providing words for them?

    Thats interesting, it means:

    Democrat Candidates = Empty Suits
    Democrat Candidates = Mindless Drones
    Democrat Candidates = Stepford Candidates
    Democrat Candidates = Undead Zombies
    Democrat Candidates = Ventriloquist Dummies
    Democrat Candidates = DISASTER FOR AMERICA
