While prowling around on freerepublic.com, I found this thread. Kind of interesting, the same basic idea as the threads floated here in th runup to the first debate: What should Kerry ask, what zingers should he use, etc. The idea of the Freeper thread was that Bush could erase his embarrassing performance last Thursday if only he could dash off the perfect comeback line, to put Kerry in his place once and for all.

The first thing I noticed in this thread is that we're MUCH funnier than they are. Maybe I just stumbled in on a bad day, but we're kicking their ass in the humor wars.
But here is a bit of unintentional humor I found:
Bush speaks best when speaking from the heart, not when answering unexpected debate-style questions. He should stick to his brief simple messages that he knows so well, and that can be more effectively sound-bitten.
He should stick to his brief simple messages? If I'm not mistaken he tried that already last Thursday. Didn't turn out too well, did it?
With wizbang advice like this, I'm afraid someone's in for a rough ride Friday night.
