Dude, It's A Debate

This week in Miami, in the midst of a hurricane battered state, two candidates will meet face to face. It took a 32 page memorandum of understanding for the Bush and Kerry teams to agree to sit on identical stools (among other things) at Thursday's Presidential Debate. In a get out the tape measure kind of a deal these two candidates will stand exactly 10 feet apart. The debate teams tried to prohibit certain camera angles, but the press says it won't be prohibited in their journalistic freedom. Kerry is a seasoned debater, and Bush has a powerful, simple message, so what can we expect? Take a word of wisdom from former Texas Governor Ann Richards, "never underestimate Bush". The debate airs at 8PM EST with millions expected to tune in. There are two more Bush/Kerry debates and one Cheney/Edwards to come.
