Questions We Hope To See In The Debates...

(but I don't think we will)

Mr. President:
George Bush

When you were a student at Phillips Academy, did anyone explain to you the difference between democracy and plutocracy? Could you define either or both for us?
(If the president attempts to define plutocracy as the Plutonian form of government - ask for a followup!)


Sen. Kerry:
JohnKerry

Do you think that your wooden appearance causes people to ignore you?
Followup: I'm sorry Senator, could you please repeat that?


Mr. Nader:
Ralph Nader

We all know what a pyrrhic victory is - are you hoping to establish your place in history by becoming known as the creator of the pyrrhic defeat?
Alternate: Mr. Nader: Do you believe any of your adherents still really believe there is no difference between Al Gore and George Bush; or do they insist on saying that so they aren't forced to shoot themselves in the head instead of the foot?
