In reply to the discussion: Obama picks John Kerry to play Romney in mock debate rehearsals [View all]rhett o rick
(55,981 posts)19. Seems a bit foolish to me. They are nothing like debates.
First the moderators will be MSM shills, careful not to embarrass Rmoney. Second whatever the question posed, the candidates say their pre-rehearsed talking points.
As far as Sen Kerry being a skilled debater, I remember when he embarrassed himself when he asked if Cheney loved his gay daughter. At that moment, everyone in the world took Cheney's side. Not saying it shouldnt have been brought up, just sayin that Sen Kerry muffed it.
