Debate agreement fine print - audience tonight is NOT "undecided voters"

[Shakespeare]

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but I caught this little blurb on Salon's War Room column a day or two ago:

<<Friday night, Bush and Kerry will take questions from audience members identified as "soft supporters" of one candidate or the other; the Commission on Presidential Debates wanted an audience of undecided voters, but the Bush-Cheney campaign worried that "undecided" was another way of saying "not on board yet" with the president.>>

1. Since the questions are pre-screened, does it really matter?

2. if the questions are all GOP friendly in content, yeah it matters a lot

3. ....is this developing as a jib jab sham? It certainly could be!
