Nobody But Him

He’s an expert debater who has a fundamental mastery of a wide range of issues, including Mitt Romney’s Massachusetts. He’s the obvious choice.”  -- David Axelrod, senior political adviser to President Obama, to the Washington Post on the decision to have the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee be Obama’s sparring partner in advance of the president’s three debates with Romney. (quoted on Foxnews.com, 6/19/2012)


Followers of the political scene will remember that debate expert Kerry is a former President of the United States having defeated the notoriously tongue-tied George W. Bush. Kerry's presidency ended early when it was found that he was a 1%er who married his wife for her money, that he avoided taxes on his multi-million dollar yacht and that his Vice-President, John Edwards, had impregnated his mistress.
