I PRAY that Gallup STACKS this debate with Bush lovers...
What BETTER way for Kerry to shine than to HACK his way through all of their bullshit, turn it back on Bush, and make them all look foolish? I think even he was quoted as saying, "I wouldn't mind if they were ALL Republican" (paraphrased, referring to the town hall questioners). And he'd do it all with a COOL, calm smile on his face. This would be perfect, as it truly appears that Kerry does his absolute best in crunch time. And yeah, yeah... let's not lower the expectations for Bush. But no matter HOW you slice it, I don't see Kerry losing tonight. Just ONE reminder for Kerry... CONNECT, CONNECT, CONNECT to the people. Period. Getting the popcorn ready...

4. Aw, You're Not Invisible Friend. And I Agree. Make It OBVIOUS The Cards
are stacked against Kerry. Kerry will STILL win with both hands tied behind his back.

2. you might have a good point
If they throw softballs at the chimp and hardballs at Kerry and he deftly deflects them--it might be to Kerry's benefit.

8. Truly.
Solidify in EVERYONE'S mind tonight that, not only did Kerry TRULY demolish Bush in the last debate, but that Kerry can handle ANYTHING that comes his way. I think this will be YET another thing that backfires on Bush. Can't wait! But I do have my Red Sox at 1:00pm to hold me over. ;)

5. Sometimes you only get responses here at DU
when people disagree! In other words, I think lots of folks agree with your comments, including me!

7. sympathy kick (Ok, j/k)
I really, really hope someone asks about the 87 Billion and Kerry spells it out at this debate. I know it's supposed to be about jobs and such, but one can only hope.

11. haha Thanks! That 87 billion is what KILLS me the most...
I agree that he didn't really spell out in the prior debate WHAT the confusion was... just said he made a mistake in talking about it. Let's dispel the bullshit once and for all tonight.

9. I honestly believe Senator Kerry can handle anything * throws at him
so, yes, I would like to see that, too. With the numbers of viewers reported for the first debate breaking all records, I think enough of them would realize who got the tougher questions and answered them vs. who got the softballs and danced around them.

12. I agree. What can they possibly ask that would trip up Kerry?
Answer: NOTHING. If it's clearly a partisan witch hunt and Kerry answers all the wingnuts in his usual brilliant and super well informed manner, all the better. Plus, even if * is thrown little sissy softballs he'll stammer and stumble cause he doesn't know dip shit. It's going to be another blow out win for Kerry, I predict!

14. The more softball for aWol and hardball for JK the better We do not want a
President who rode to the debate on the little bus. No offense to the disabled. If the shrub is to lazy to prepare for a softball match that indicates some kind of Brain Damage after those years of binging.
