Boo!
Sex appeal always has and always will be used to market products. No point in trying to shy away from it in my opinion. Besides, the amount/nudity of the woman in no way correlates to the quality of the final product anyhow.
For example, Rome: Total War I recall had a great number of toga clad babes at its booth, and the game turned out great nonetheless.
Sigh, US is getting shittier and shittier every year. Can I come live with someone in Europe? Anyone? 
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

Here is what your going to miss:
http://www.futurelooks.com/photopost/showgallery.php/cat/557
All I can say if you get rid of the Booth Babes then game demos should not contain any violence or bad language. I mean let's go all out on making E3 100% PC!
Oh, see how long it will take before E3 ends up like that other show....oh, um, what was it.....COMDEX!!!

And what is wrong with looking at women as objects? You objectify basically everyone you do not know - that's part of our psyche, and the reason why you don't care as much for; eg. someone in Australia dying that is not in any way related to you, in the same way as you care for someone you know; dying.
These people become objects in our mind, because if we viewed every single person we came in contact with as "people with soul, heart, emotions, and feelings", we would probably go crazy.
In smaller villages, where everyone knows eachother - it's more common to learn to know everyone as a person, but where most of us live, we objectify everyone. We look at a bus driver as a bus driver, unless we commit ourselves to focus on that person as a person. But he/she only becomes a person until we concentrate our efforts on that being as being such.
Looking at women as objects, is the same thing as looking at men as objects. We look at them, without considering everything they stand for, are, et cetera. How we look on someone at an E3-show, does not affect how we view women we relate to personally - no, our mothers, sisters, and girlfriends usually (unless we are mentally deranged, and alienate everything around us) do not magically become objects just because we objectify "sexy people" we look at in magazines or E3-shows.
I think of women I do not know more or less as objects, and I'm hardly ashamed for it. I view a woman I have no relationship whatsoever with as a work of art, and relate to it similarly. Only if or when I meet her in person, do I start relating to her as a person, and that way she would "flesh out".
I've actually met a person whom I've seen semi-sexy pictures of, and when I spoke to her in person, my interest in the pictures were lost completely, and this was because she was a fucking nitwit (screwed in the head). Stupidity is the biggest turn-off for me, regardless of the physical "art" attributes.
Yes, yes I'm back.
Somewhat.

Good thing. E3 is about the games and that's what publishers should focus on.
Remember that guy who pretended to be disabled so he could grab booth babes' asses and take snapshots of their underwear? Good riddance I say.
It's not like you have to go to a gaming exhibition in order to look at women.

Meh. Its all advertising. If you ban it from E3 you should ban it from anything that might be child or minor related. Who gives a shit if they are being "exploited" , they chose to be an object, no one forced them to do anything.
Its so funny how we ban one thing but turn a blind eye to other things.
For example. Have any of you ever seen those "Brats" dolls. The dolls are sold to little girls, y 6 - 14 range. And most of these dolls look like whores. And i think they are made by Disney ffs. A friend of mines daughter wanted them for xmas. I took one look at them and felt sick to my stomach. There was no way i was buying that garbage for her. Things like this need to be changed over banning some E3 girls.
