"All Bush has to do is warn anyone watching the debate to watch out for the word "but" coming from Kerry"
I like it and I think you are correct. I was thinking something similar. Like at the beginning challenging sKerry to answer all questions by first pointing out the success or experience that makes him qualified. Then Bush could state flatly that he won't be able to do it. I'd love to see sKerry's reaction.
Agreed. Once Bush asks the audience to watch for the BUT word, people will be doing just that, and Kerry will be aware of it. Kerry will try to do something else and fail because he cannot stop using BUT to modify his positions.
