Debate: Obama vs. McCain

[Alii]

I was just envisioning, in my mind, the debate(s) between Barack Obama and John McCain. It's very late and I'm just beginning a pre-dream. Nightmare?

In this debate, would McCain be allowed to have Joe Lieberman by his side to whisper corrections in his ear? If not, this is appearing to be a gross mismatch. Maybe Hillary could sub as a stand-in. She has been a good surrogate.

As some might take this seriously...

1. Well, the key would be to get McCain mad

and have Obama remain cool and calm. Slam dunk for the Dems.

3. I've always figured this would be the strategy, but it would be wrong.

Reason being that McCain would be ready for that, and would Reagan it to rest if done to him (There you go again...). It would look like the black dude is trying to piss off Grandpa.

It's possible there's a way to make McCain fly off the handle, but I don't know that it's a very good strategy to poke at him all debate trying to find it.

4. And have McCain explain how republicons are 'friends to the middle class and poor'

Bwaaa ha ha ha ha

2. He'll have Leiberman asking the questions.

And there won't be squat we can do about it....

And if Barack declines to debate it will be ALL OVER the network media that Ba-rok bok bok bok is afraid of McCain.

It'll be a nightmare allright.
