One way to make presidential debates more exciting

[CTLawGuy]

is have a physical challenge option. Either you answer the question or take the phsyical challenge. A la DOUBLE DARE.

"Mr. Lieberman has decided to take the physical challenge. He will have to bob apples out of a vat of chocolate, crawl across a mat covered in whip cream and put as manay as he can in a bucket :-)"

1. How about a round of Truth or Dare?

MODERATOR: President Bush, your turn. Truth or dare?
BUSH: Ehh, err... umm... Truth.
MODERATOR: All right. Have you ever done cocaine?
BUSH: Uhh... Dare!
MODERATOR: I'm sorry, sir. You already picked Truth.
BUSH: No I didn't.
MODERATOR: Yes you did.
BUSH: I think you're mistaken.
MODERATOR: No, I'm not. You picked Truth.
BUSH: I picked Dare!
MODERATOR: (sighs) Very well then, President Bush. I dare you to tell me whether or not you did cocaine.
BUSH: Err... Truth!
MODERATOR: You just said you picked Dare.
BUSH: No I didn't. I picked Truth!
MODERATOR: You picked Dare!!!

This could go on for years...

4. Mention 9-11 in the answer to a question...

That's totally unrelated to 9-11, and you do a shot.

Bush would be on the floor within five minutes.
