The stage is set for another in the exciting series of Democrat love fests called debates. The last one was a love fest because they agree on everything. The only difference is how much government they will saddle us with. The difference is not in will they or won’t they. The difference is in how much.
The last debate was significant for one reason. That is because Tim Russert asked Mrs. Bill Clinton a question about driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants. When she got on both sides of the issue, he asked her again to clarify her position. She again tried to have it both ways. He then asked her to come down on one side or the other. She could not do so. Her natural instinct to hide the truth from the public was too strong. She held her tongue and looked like an idiot in doing so. Her rivals made lame attempts to help her look like a fool, but she was doing a good job all on her own.
The big question going into this debate is: will Mrs. Bill Clinton again make a fool out of herself. She does not want to answer any questions. All that the questioner has to do is make her take a stand on one side of the issue or the other. Then she will hem and haw and not answer the question. That will make her look indecisive and lame. That is what made her look so bad last time. The big question is will Wolf Blitzer make Mrs. Bill Clinton answer questions or will he let her get away with spouting drivel in response. It does not much matter what her opponents do to the questions. She is the front-runner. She has to be decisive and strong. To look weak and indecisive is the worst thing that can happen to a front-runner.
Since Wolf Blitzer was told by the Clinton machine that he has to lay off Mrs. Bill Clinton and not be as tough as Tim Russert. The gauntlet has been thrown down by the Clinton’s. Wolf now has to decide what to do. Does he bow to the Clinton machine and show himself to be weak? Or does he come across strong and show that he is unafraid of the Clinton machine? Tim Russert came off looking good after being smeared by the Clinton machine. Maybe he can do the same this time around?
Those of us who believe that the absolute worst candidate for President is Mrs. Bill Clinton can only hope she falls on her face again. The more she does that the better it is for the country. It may mean a Democrat in the White House, but that is better than a Clinton in the White House.
Mrs. Bill Clinton is also reeling from the planted question at the “Ask Mrs. Clinton Anything” meeting after the last debate. That shows that she is afraid to face a real question. She cannot think on her feet. The debate fiasco of last week and the planted question fiasco are pointing to that. If she is afraid of a real question, what would happen if she was faced with something unusual? Could she respond to an unusual situation without having all the advisors telling her what to do? She knows what she wants to do to the US. That I know for a fact is true. But the real question is could she handle some emergency? I seriously doubt that she could handle an emergency without having a long time to prepare a response. She would not be given the time to prepare a response. I have no confidence in her gut feelings and ability to improvise.
