3. I've got the wit, looks, humor; he wouldn't have a chance against me.
Vain? ME?

I laugh.

The tension is killing me, thanks for the diversion!

4. I'd totally lose in a fair debate with Bush, I hope.
When you leap over your opponent's lectern and start pummeling his face, you really ought to lose by default. I wouldn't even participate in a debate that would allow for that sort of behavior.

5. All it would taken was savy and guts. We didn't really have anyone
to fit that bill. Good, maybe great men. But not savy and too afraid to speak from the soul.

6. We all could do better
Seriously, we all could do better. I am not a terrific public speaker but at least I make some sense when I open my mouth.

7. I'd walk in front of the podia to shake his hand
with a carton of cigarettes between my shoulder blades, under my jacket. When the moderator demanded I be inspected, I would demand the same of GWB. Then I'd offer the cigarettes to Laura.

I would never look at the moderator or the audience, just directly into Bush's eyes.

11. I don't get it. What's with the cigarettes thing?
Is she a smoker? (And I mean that in the conventional sense, not in the colloquial sense)

10. Not sure...
I think I'd get disqualified for screaming "W... T.. F...!" every time he said something ELSE butt numbingly stupid.

I'm pretty sure debates have rules against that kind of behavior. :)

16. I'd mop the floor with him
Unlike Gore and Kerry, I would not feel I had to be the slightest bit polite. He'd stomp off the stage within five minutes, for sure.
