Personally, I am not very worried about the debates. People like Joe Biden and he’s a pretty good debater. He probably had the best line of the 2008 debates when he came up with that thing about Guiliani, a noun, a verb, and 9/11. He did a great job against Palin in what was frankly an otherworldly and starbursty situation. As for the presidential debates, the last two shouldn’t be a problem. The second debate is a town hall forum with a Long Island audience of “undecided” voters. That’s home field territory for Obama. The last debate is on foreign policy, where it will be nearly impossible for Romney to make any progress on discussing the economy. It’s the first debate that will focus exclusively on domestic issues that offers Romney his chance to shine. Except, you know, he wants to destroy Medicare and take away your home mortgage deduction to finance a tax break on rich people and corporations.
Are you worried?
