It’s very important for the President to win the debate tonight because he was so dismal last week. The electorate is composed mainly of sheep, and they’ll take any excuse to hide in the fictional reality that Kerry and the Democratic Party’s myth machine is creating for them, all the better to enable that party’s bosses to sell our nation down the river.
And to win the debate he’s going to have to directly address the crap that we all know Kerry will be spewing. At the first debate he tried to stay above the BS, but that approach clearly doesn’t work in this format. So when Kerry dives into his bullshit talking points, the President has to slam him. I expect Kerry will repeat the familiar foreign policy mantras:
* Outsourcing the capture of Osama
* Iraq is a diversion
* Poor diplomacy limited the extent of the coalition
* Reconstruction pace is too slow
* Allies are waiting for an invitation to join up
* All the domestic targets can be hardened
* It’s all about Halliburton
Plus some new domestic policy crap:
* Us trial lawyers want to keep your insurance rates low
* No new jobs
* The new jobs all suck
* Tax cuts for the rich
* No Child is an unfunded mandate
* Flopsy and Mopsy are cute and chicks dig them.
None of this is really hard work, but he’s got to dig in and go right for it, no hanging back and no mercy. He can do it, and he must do it.
