Will Bush successfully cheat in the debate?

Poll question: Will Bush successfully cheat in the debate?

This is not a question of who will win the debate but rather whether the imposter will get away with cheating as he did when he asked Gore the direct question.

3. Yes, and Kerry had to agree to let him cheat

otherwise there wouldn't be any debates.

Being the ONLY big shot we get any decent media airplay,
we have to take it, no matter how unfavorable the terms.

4. Yes he will cheat. He WILL ask a direct question and Kerry should,

after saying "Well, since you broke the rules george I'm gonna ask you a few questions..." and proceed to use the remaining time asking bush* every question the press hasn't bothered to over the last 10 years, then at the end just turn his head in disgust and walk off the stage.

7. Great idea

Also, Kerry also needs to be prepared for Bush to cheat in a different way and to try to get out those points in the rest of the debate also.

5. Perhaps Kerry could turn it into a soundbyte about cheating.

Then the public might learn on the news that Bush cheated again.

8. I am pretty certain

he will be taking instructions from Rove probably in an embedded radio device. Though with all the censorship (both AT the debate and in the media) I'd imagine they are going to cover any screw ups he makes even if he isn't using a radio.

9. What was the question Chimpy asked Gore in the 2000 debates?

[Anaxamander]

10. Here is one that Gore asked * directly

MODERATOR: Governor, what is your -- are you opposed to affirmative action?

BUSH: If affirmative action means quotas, I'm against it. If affirmative action means what I just described what I'm for, then I'm for it. You heard what I was for. The vice president keeps saying I'm against things. You heard what I was for, and that's what I support.

MODERATOR: What about -- Mr. Vice President, you heard what he said.

GORE: He said if affirmative action means quotas, he's against it. Affirmative action doesn't mean quotas. Are you for it without quotas?

BUSH: I may not be for your version, Mr. Vice President, but I'm for what I just described to the lady.

GORE: Are you for what the Supreme Court says is a constitutional way of having affirmative action?

MODERATOR: Let's go on to another --

GORE: I think that speaks for itself.

BUSH: No, it doesn't speak for itself, Mr. Vice President, it speaks for the fact that there are certain rules in this that we all agree to, but evidently rules don't mean anything.

MODERATOR: The question is for you, Vice President Gore, and Lisa Kee will ask it. Lisa Kee, where are you? There we go, sorry.
