Debate game: Identify the "zingers" aids have provided Mr. Romney


Posted: Oct 2, 2012

"Mr. Romney’s team has concluded that debates are about creating moments and has equipped him with a series of zingers that he has memorized and has been practicing on aides since August. "

With all that practice, will we see an almost reaganesque delivery, with each a jewel followed by excited babble from the talking heads, or will some be rather hard to identify?

Unfortunately, President Obama is supposedly avoiding zingers, leaving us to count any lapses into professorial lecture mode, unless someone has a better idea.

Body Language - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
In my observation of Romney, he seems to signal his rehearsed comments by lickng his lips. Sometimes he will smirk somewhat inappropriately. Sometimes I am wondering if I am listening to a bad telemarketer. John McCain used to sort of jump up on his tiptoes when delivering a rehearsed line.

Wonderful. Seriously, I'm going to write those down. I - remember the McCain bounce but did not connect.NM

I suspect his trainers will have broke him of the habits - but

I do not think they can take the bad telemarketer out of him.

Here's a fun, detailed Forbes article, "Evaluating the Body Language - of Our Next President." Enjoy (but

let's not forget that this has absolutely nothing to do with how the next administration will change our future.)

Another idea for Obama - vf

Let's identify his puzzled expressions whenever Romney uses a zinger at the wrong time; like, "There you go again" when Obama says something he never said before.

Obama Aids Iranian Nuclear Terror. Oct 06, 2016

Then, as part of his dirty deal with Iran, he secretly sent a fortune in foreign cash on airplanes linked to the IRGC. And, as another part of the secret ransom deal with Iran, he lifted UN sanctions on Bank Sepah. The United States has gone after plenty of banks for aiding terror finance, but Bank Sepah is somewhat unique in that it is a financial institutio ...
