The Democratic National Committee announced Wednesday that it has canceled its upcoming debate in Los Angeles, after the top Democratic presidential candidates said they would not cross a picket line to attend the CBS event if news writers decide to strike. Well maybe we should just postpone the election untill the union tantrum is over?
Democratic candidates quickly voiced their intentions for the debate the day before Thanksgiving, after Hillary Clinton released a statement saying she hopes both sides will reach an agreement at CBS, but that she would "honor the picket line if the workers at CBS News decide to strike."
John Edwards said he too would not cross the picket line in the event of a strike.
Barack Obama's campaign quickly followed suit, as did the campaigns of Bill Richardson, Joe
Biden and Chris Dodd, saying they would not attend the debate if there were a strike.
