Good addition to debate proposal

One of Ryan Lizza's readers made this suggestion, apropos of Kerry's challenge to Bush to have weekly debates:

"What if Kerry proposed that he would support getting rid of all 527 TV ads (not legitimate GOTV, etc.) if Bush agreed to weekly debates? The purpose of debates is to inform people better than ads can, right? It would blunt whatever legitimate point Bush has about liberal 527s."

Lizza adds that there's little cost for Kerry to this idea, as he and Bush don't have actually have any power to do anything about the 527s (and if the 527s refuse to listen to Kerry, it just reinforces the lack of a true connection to his campaign). That also means that it's sort of pie in the sky, and might get rejected as such-- but so, in the first place, is Bush's proposal about getting rid of them. This just highlights that, plus it ties that proposal to one that presumably would scare Bush and which he wouldn't accept-- but which the public would probably support in huge numbers. So it seems like a good idea to me.
