If ever I’d debate you
Would I prep in Denver?
In Denver where John Kerry
Teaches me how to lie
No surely not Denver
The altitudes too high
And sometimes the airplanes
Dip low when they fly

So should I prep in Virginia,
All southern and warm
No, no! Not Virginia
Where the greens make me poo,
Before traveling to New York
Where I’m surrounded by Jooos!

“.....he will know all questions and scripted responses ahead of time....”

He can have a teleprompter, and it won’t matter. The man has no clue about what it’s like being an American. I pity him, actually. Fatherless he learned about “us” from people who hate America.

Never owning a business, he is anti business. NEVer having served he doesn’t understand the military family.

If the question is posed by a young man or women, “I want to be an astronaut, how can I?” You know right there that Obama will not understand the question or the answer, and he’ll ramble.

If the question is about something, neither men know the answer too, e.g. “There is a problem with animals being abandoned in our neighborhoods and roaming the streets. What are you going to do about it?”

The answers will be polar apart. Romney will analyzed the situation, find the problem, and then look for the solution. Obama will ramble on how the gov’t will take care of it.

I really am not concerned if Obama knows the questions, if he has plants in the audience or whatever. These men cannot be more different when it comes to answering questions about America and Americans.

Reminds me of the episode of Malcom in the Middle where Hal becomes idolized by a bunch of muscle-bound body builders, because he helps one of them rescue his house keys from a grate that it fell down, using a stick and a piece of gum.

In the first debate Obama spoke 4 minutes longer than Romney but said 500 less words. There will be a lot of pauses, hums, and uhs from Obama. Romney responses will be quick, to the point and articulate. I’m looking forward to the debate.

From day one he has manipulated the press conference by talking slow and going on forever on the first question. Filibuster.

He has to guard against his Marxist dogma popping out in the debate.

So this is a challenge for him. His ideas suck, and he has to sell them while Romney is in his face exposing him.

If Romney is on, Obama will get roasted even more.

O's choices are:

1. Blow the debate, lose the election, retire to sunny Hawaii.

2. Possibly win election (seems less likely by the hour), and face impeachment along with Biden over Benghazi-gate. Speaker of the house becomes acting President.

Expect a democratic plant in the audience to ask the “47%” question to Romney. Also, expect Obama to bring it up or second that “randomly” selected audience member. Expect it.

I would counter that with the President’s pronouncements dismissing we the “Astro Turf of America” as bitterly clinging to our guns and religion and as categorizing Republicans as the “enemy”. I would also criticize the President for all the other divisive tactics he has employed. Hey, but that’s just me.

Me too.

Ryan is a decent, intelligent fellow and all, but he had very weak sauce in combating the childish, playground debate tactics from Joe Biden. It doesn’t take much to look someone in the eye and say, “Knock it off. You are behaving like a child. Grown-ups are trying to have a discussion here. You are supposed to be the Pres/Vice Pres, why are you acting in such an undignified manner?”....Also....you can throw in....”Well that’s just stupid” or some such low-brow stuff. Who knows, such a response from Romney might even appeal to the blue-collar crowd in Ohio.

Let’s hope Romney has a few well-crafted responses for the attacks that will surely come. Obama can’t be as immature as Joker Biden, but he will attempt to be more aggressive than last time. Count on it.

No Marquess de Queensberry rules here folks. We may need UFC rules.

Interesting that the fact there is a championship level golf course at Kingsmill isn’t mentioned in the Media...

Even so, bragging about it ain’t smart.
