How many of Kerry’s gaffes from the first debate will Cheney be able to pound on tomorrow night? If he can skewer Kerry’s idea of selling Iran nuclear fuel (or thoughtfully partially preprocessed bomb material) while promising to eliminate the weapon best suited for knocking out hardened bunkers while questioning Kerry’s identification of nuclear proliferation as being “the most important” problem facing the world, he will have done a good job.

If, additionally, he brings to the fore the utter stupidity of Kerry’s claim to be able to solicit additional allies to fight in a war that Kerry considers to be mistaken regarding location, timing and method it will be a plus. Or perhaps Edwards will be asked to explain why a broad coalition is necessary to fight terrorism but North Korea is better handled on a bilateral basis. Or maybe Edwards can explain what the “global test” consists of and who gets to assign a passing grade.

Lord knows, the DNC/MSM will not address the utter lack of logical coherence in the positions Kerry took as he “looked presidential” while “just making shit up”, so Cheney may helpfully clarify for the American people the choice that confronts them.
