chimp's theme for the debates may be emerging

[The_Casual_Observer]

1. bringing home troops
2. "push" for more vet benefits
3. missile "shield" works
Thus a stronger America (never mind about the economy)
over the last 2-3 days these have emerged in the press for testing to see if they stick and are appropriately misunderstood, if so, expect to see him ride these hard for a while.

1. I thought it was:

"America, I'm not as think as you dumb I am!"

2. Rich people don't pay taxes anyway

3. Aren't the questions decided by the moderator?

I hope Jim Lehrer asks him some tough ones.

4. Screw the moderator....

I hope JK takes control of the debate himself. He's got the smarts and the skills to do it in a way that shows calm leadership and steady control. No need for hissy-fits and rudeness. If he commits himself to driving home a few select points, and to convincing the voters rather than tussling with Chimpy-boy, JK will OWN this thing! :)

5. Lehrer ? Try Hannity.

If Kerry can cajole him into debates they'll be moderated by Fox.

6. As I understand it the moderaters have already

been picked. Jim Lehrer is one of them. Can't think of the other two right now but it wasn't anyone from Fox.

I am sure Kerry will handle himself well. I said I hope Lehrer asks the Chimp tough questions because he is good at that and he doesn't suck up to anyone. Plus I am pretty sure he is on our side. I don't think he will let the chimp control the debate.

7. I hope he can explain well how that missile shield is going to

detect and destroy box cutters and Nike bombs.
