If Kerry sees the bulge in Chimpy's suit tonight, he WINS the election if

[ElementaryPenguin]

He says, "Mr. President, there's a nasty rumor making its way around the internet that one of us is wired for sound - in complete violation of the rules for these debates. I'm removing my jacket (as he removes his jacket) to prove that I'm not guilty, would you care to do the same? I'm sure you won't mind simply removing your jacket as I have just done - in order to prove once and for all that these outrageous allegations are completely unfounded. I think the American people need to be assured of this."

As Chimpy pauses to assume his patented deer-in-the-headlights look, and begins to sweat bullets - he will be virtually trapped - with the pressure mounting as he refuses (as he must) to do likewise. His failure to simply remove his jacket will be seen by the average person as nothing less than a total confession. With the stakes so high in this final debate, he is going to HAVE to be wired. If he complies, and is found to be wearing nothing visible, Kerry can still quip, "I never believed you were wired - no one would have actually fed you such ridiculously weak answers."

Again, if Kerry sees the bulge, or if one of his people sees it and can signal to him, he MUST go in for the kill, and expose the cheating Smirky, who would be cheating him and the public out of a fair debate, with the whole election at stake. The game, set, and match would absolutely be over at that very moment!

Make no mistake about it, Kerry really must finish off Bush with a knockout tonight, and not with any mild "prevent defense" approach!

1. Kerry

That would be funny

[ElementaryPenguin]

3. Or what?

I would jump for joy - more than I did when Michael Moore blasted the War Chimp at the Academy Awards!

[qanda]

2. Yeah and if there's nothing there

Then Kerry looks like the biggest fool to ever walk the earth. I think Kerry should stay as far away from this as possible and let people speculate-- everyone loves a good mystery.

[ElementaryPenguin]

4. Chimpy (as always) would be the fool - and set up

for Kerry's whopper of a quip! Not only that THERE IS SOMETHING THERE! Furthermore, Kerry (nor anyone else) could ever look like the "biggest fool to walk the earth" while standing next to Smirky.

[cardlaw]

5. Exactly.

Never go out on a limb like that unless you know, for a fact, the answer/outcome of the question.

[ElementaryPenguin]

8. What else could that bulge possibly be? Did you see his wire come out

from behind his tie in the second debate?

[democrat_patriot]

22. * will wear a back brace, or some other device to make Kerry look bad.

This would backfire. * will NOT wear anything that bulges tonight (Flightsuit notwithstanding)unless he wants Kerry to call him on it.

It should be brought to the moderators attention by someone else.

Unless the moderator is already bought and paid for.

[bryant69]

11. Yes. If we knew for sure, I'd say yes

But the best you can say is it sure looks like . . .

18. Kerry can frisk him.

When they shake hands, Kerry can pat Bush on the back RIGHT BETWEEN THE SHOULDER BLADES. If he feels something, especially if it starts making some beeping noises, he'll know he can go in for the kill.

Better yet: Kerry could carry a little transmitter in his left hand (like one of those old joke buzzers) and run it up and down the ridge in Bush's back. Then watch as Bush makes lots of funny faces as his ears get blown out by the electronic interferrence.

[ElementaryPenguin]

20. LOL on that! Wouldn't that be hillarious?

Chimpy's Secret Service men might tackle Kerry!

[flyingfysh]

6. this falls into a trap

If the Bush people, expecting something like this, make a special jacket with some sort of frame in the cloth which can be collapsed when it is removed, then Kerry would hurt himself greatly.

The odds greatly favor Kerry now. Why risk it?

[ElementaryPenguin]

14. Then Bush would be performing on his own - and he CAN'T!!!!!!!

It's like the worst high-wire act in the world perfoming without a net! It ain't gonna happen!

[ochazuke]

19. It might be sewn into the jacket

So, taking off the jacket won't reveal anything.

[ElementaryPenguin]

21. Chimpy's wire came out from behind his tie in the second debate

but that is a good point.

[Vickers]

28. I missed that! Does anybody have a screen capture of that?

:shrug:

[ElementaryPenguin]

32. It was screen captured and in one of yesterday's threads!

I'll try to find it for you.

[Vickers]

33. Yeah, I'm searching now, but not having any luck

:thumbsup:

[ElementaryPenguin]

34. Here's the thread

Message #201

[Vickers]

38. Thank you!

Went ahead and looked at the photos, and I'm reading the thread now.

:toast:

[Nickster]

7. He would have to frame it a bit differently though

Remember, by the rules, assuming he will abide by them, he can't direct a question directly to *. Kerry would have to deliver it more like a statement to no one in particular.

[ElementaryPenguin]

12. True.

:dem:

[Cleita]

9. Anybody see John Edwards on Jay Leno last night?

Jay showed the picture to Edwards of Bush with the lump on his back under his suit. He asked him what he thought was on his back?

Edwards quickly replied, "His batteries?"

Damn, cute and a sense of humor too.
That lucky Elizabeth.
And, it sure slapped that silly setup back to Jay.

[ElementaryPenguin]

16. Did he really? That's hysterical!

:dem:

[Hutzpa]

36. He's on tonite n/t

[onehandle]

10. That bulge is just some rolled up socks or a codpiece...

Oh, His Jacket. Nevermind.

[ElementaryPenguin]

17. Bushler borrowing a page from Spinal Tap

"We've got armadillos in our trousers."

[kcwayne]

13. There won't be a bulge in his suit tonight, but Chimpy will have

a very puckered and uncomfortable look on his face. Rove is shoving the device up his ass tonight so as to avoid detection by the liberal media.

[ElementaryPenguin]

15. Funny dat!

:toast:

[VaYallaDawg]

24. kcwayne you have a wicked sense of humor.

I loves it!!!

[Tsiyu]

23. Oh, Please

He'll just say that "After 911, Muricans unnerstand I don't haveta play by th' rules." And freepers and media bootlickers will chant along....

[ElementaryPenguin]

26. You're undoubtedly correct. What was I thinking? EVERYTHING changed yada

Yada...

[MADem]

25. All Kerry has to do

..is yank the dolt's arm and give the weewee a strong, manly slap on the back like he did at the first debate, where he TURNED OFF the device, leaving weecowboy to blubber and fend on his own!

For want of a wire, the debate was lost!

In truth, all Kerry has to do is what he has been doing. The topic is DOMESTIC POLICY. I'm sure all of the people who STILL ARE NOT WORKING but HAVE DROPPED OFF THE UNEMPLOYMENT ROLLS because their BENEFITS HAVE RUN OUT will be watching...along with all the aged people who have seen a 17 PERCENT RISE in their medicare expenses, the PARENTS WHO COMPETE WITH THEIR KIDS for MCDONALD's JOBS, the families of DEAD SOLDIERS, and people who are sick of being TREATED LIKE SUSPECTS when they have done nothing wrong, except maybe to register as a Democrat!

[Vickers]

27. VERY DANGEROUS! He should pat Georgie's hump and then simply

cock an eyebrow very theatrically, Spock-like (or Jack Nicholson-like).

Everyone will get the message, and he doesn't expose himself to ridicule if it turns out to be something innocuous like some GI-Joe pull-string or something.

[ElementaryPenguin]

30. I think you might be on to something! Perhaps that would be about

the wisest approach - and it WOULD call attention to the cheater-in- chief's shameless tactics!

[Cat Atomic]

41. I love that- it's perfect.

Nothing overt, nothing risky... people can continue to speculate if they're so inclined.

*If* there is something in there, that knowing pat would really rattle Bush.

[951]

29. He'll probably wear it on his waist or balls tonight

[ElementaryPenguin]

31. We can safely rule that out- being that Smirk's never had any balls!

Obvious, but I couldn't resist.

:shrug:

[boyblue2005]

37. No balls?

Sans balls it's even easier to hide. May have already been done, in fact.

35. You trying to make Kerry look Stupid, nope

won't work.




:evilfrown:

[ElementaryPenguin]

39. NOTHING can make Kerry look stupid standing next to Bush, understand?

NOTHING!

[John BigBootay]

40. Has the bulge been disproven as a wireless mike?

I've heard about this bulge- but honestly haven't given it much thought. The first thing that comes to mind is that we often use wireless microphones in television production-- I work in TV, BTW.

I saw the photo of the bulge on Bush's back-- it looks about the same size and shape as a wireless mike. This would be a certain necessity if the speaker was to walk away from the podium-- and away from any fixed mikes that he might be speaking into.

Personally, I don't think Bush used an earpiece because he just didn't do that well in the debates. If he was then the guy on the other end needs to get a new job because he wasn't feeding very good lines / ideas / comebacks / numbers, etc...
