What the Veep Smackdown Tells Us About Tonight's Debate
In a recent column at HughHewitt.com, I noted:
Since March, the lead in the Rasmussen daily tracking poll – perhaps the country’s most reliable poll – has switched more than thirty times. It could happen again.
The president has said he was “too polite” last time. I say that if that is what he believes he did wrong in the first debate and he plans to channel his inner Biden in this one, bring it on. Rage and rudeness are exactly what the American people detest in candidates.
That does not sound like a warning, I know. And it is true that a president who once used a TelePrompter to address school children may not have it in him to deliver a formidable performance in the give and take of a debate.
But in the instability of this race and the president’s clearly formidable reelection machinery, Yogi Berra’s warning about baseball applies. It isn’t over ‘til it’s over.

Clark,
This is going to be very interesting. Obama is going into his act in a more aggressive way. However, it is the same act. Mitt is very strong and is scoring his points.
The big question is will the American People see the truth through the smoke screen? Tomorrow's polls will tell us a lot.

Clark,
Just had a wild thought. Obama as Citizen Kane. He's looks angry. What he is saying doesn't matter so much because he just isn't a happy camper. What could he be angry about? It's simple THEY DON'T LOVE HIM! Why after all he's done for them they don't love him.
See if you see it too. I'll go out on a limb. I think Obama is going to bomb big time. Tomorrow will tell.
Regards,
Jim
