From your lips to Hillary's ears. <br />The thing is, Mr. Trump sets the rules for the debate, for what people consider a win.<br />Actually, I expect he'll come out quietly and dance around the ring, looking to get all wild with a flurry of quotable for TV soundbites toward the end. <br />All he has to do is to look not crazy, just as all George W had to do was to look not flat out imbecilic. <br />His set pieces will likely remain as they have been, "Oh, there'll be so much winning after so much losing."<br />Remember Obama getting taken down by Romney the first debate? <br />It was only when he realized he might be in trouble, Obama came out swinging in the second debate, but it was pretty demoralizing for a while after that first debate.<br />Hillary will no doubt be timid, playing it safe, not a lot of zingers. <br />Bernie, of course would demolish Trump, because he has that capacity to simplify and hammer.<br />Alas, Hillary does not.<br />Maxthe phantom speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01629183077961716582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859118341865282720.post-67330125870031896362016-09-24T08:28:55.756-04:002016-09-24T08:28:55.756-04:00Mad Dog,
Love the line "Great White Wail"...Mad Dog,<br />Love the line "Great White Wail"-clever and tremendously accurate, but Hillary would never open the debate with anything so daring. All of your suggestions for opening lines would work quite well..I was thinking she could also start with the old adage "The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has it's limits." Where it goes from there is the cliff hanger isn't it..I agree that hopefully Hill isn't wasting this run up time cramming more facts into her head. It's not necessary. If she spent the next three days without sleep and doing little more than watching re-runs of "The Flintstones" she'd still be infinitely more ready for the duel from an intellectual standpoint. But one really can't use intellectual and Trump in the same sentence can one. He never employed intellect when defeating his opponents, so Hill will need more in her arsenal than facts. The big, bad Donald will be huffing and puffing, but she needs to find a way to leave him as cowed as the female minister did last week. That was a sight to behold- he morphs from Candidate Trump into Baby Huey in one fell swoop. Here's to Hillary having some similar success, unfortunately she won't have the element of surprise, so it won't be as easy..<br /><br />Of course Donny may try to present the new and improved "Presidential" version of himself, but it seems unlikely he'd ever be able to maintain his composure for very long- the urge to bully and insult would be too hard to resist. When the time comes for a closing remark, it would be wonderful if Hillary was brief and to the point- as in-"You can't argue with stupidity". Alas, the chances of that are as likely as her comparing him-unfavorably-to a chimp and a jackass..darn..<br />Maud maudnoreply@blogger.com
