Hopefully this will lead to an end to the CPD.

I just noticed I forgot to post a quote from the article.

On Thursday, August 12, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Judge Henry H. Kennedy, Jr., found that the FEC acted "contrary to law" in dismissing a complaint claiming that the CPD is a partisan organization and, therefore, ineligible under federal election law to sponsor presidential debates. (A copy of the decision can be found at http://www.dcd.uscourts.gov/04-731.pdf) "This ruling casts a dark cloud over the legitimacy of the CPD to sponsor the upcoming 2004 debates," said Jason Adkins, co-lead counsel for the plaintiffs. "It is time for the CPD to step aside and allow a truly non- partisan organization sponsor the national presidential debates in accordance with federal law."
