I'm wondering who trains this guy in debate "strategies" and "tactics." Why would he repeat "he's wrong, he's wrong" and then turn around and say more than once: "Sen. McCain is absolutely right." Idiot. Also, if the oppo is going to tell a few lies about you, tell a few about him first, not reactive. Reactive is passive. Passive looses.

Fundamental rule, never say anything you don't want to be true. If it doesn't help to have Sen. McCain be "absolutely right," then don't say it. Never articulate anything in a debate you don't want to be true, or to happen.

Choose a strategy. Let's say the strategy is to equate John McCain with George Bush. The tactics would be to talk a lot about George Bush, not John McCain. Let the viewer make the connection. Repeat failures and negatives of Bush while sweeping your hand in John McCain's direction. Another tactic would be to repeat the mantra, "we can't afford another 4 years of this." Don't deviate from the mantra, don't shift one word of the sentence.

Democrats consistently put up lightweight candidates and Obama is no different. With the economy as it is, with the last 8 years as they have been, that he isn't trouncing the opposition is pathetic.

To go with manufactured intellect. I've always been against the practice here of composite images. You know who else does composite images? Weekly World News. Bat Boy.

Pathetic.

The right obviously circulates this known fabrication, in the same way they circulated the forged national guard papers that brought down Dan Rather. Most on the right don't mind the idea of banning books. The left gets all up at arms about this fake list. The list is exposed as an obvious fake and everything that comes after from the media is suspect.

I feel like I'm trapped in some repeating version of history. Instead of "ground hogs day" we'll call it "election day." Same stuff every 4 years, and every 4 years the "progressives" act as if they are seeing it for the first time.
