In what has to be seen as being the ultimate insult yet hurled at Mitt Romney, by the Barry campaign, is the fact that it has now been confirmed that John Kerry, who I believe spent a very brief, yet personally rewarding time in Vietnam, has been recruited to play the part of Mitt Romney in mock debates ahead of the three presidential debates scheduled for October. The Washington Post first reported this 'news'. David Axelrod, Barry's chief strategist, informed the Post and described Kerry as being the "obvious choice." According to Axelerod, "There is no one that has more experience or understanding of the presidential debate process than John Kerry." He went on to say, "He's an expert debater who has a fundamental mastery of a wide range of issues, including Mitt Romney's Massachusetts." Let's face it, Kerry's got all the brain power of your average 25 watt light bulb and even less personality. He reminds me of an old bloodhound.
And yet, many political observers have noted the similarities between Kerry, the Democrat presidential nominee in 2004, and Romney. For instance, both men are extremely wealthy, however the stark difference between the two being, of course, that Romney worked for his money while Kerry married his. The rationale here is that Kerry is supposed to be intimately familiar with the record and rhetoric of the former Massachusetts governor and Senate candidate. He is also said to be a strong debater, with the Post noting that Kerry was supposedly a "star debater" while at Yale. Honestly, I fail to see the logic here. Kerry may be perceived as being some great debater, but he still didn't beat Bush, and Bush sucked as a debater. Romney, apparently, has not yet tapped a stand-in for Barry in his mock debates, but that shouldn't be all that difficult. I mean, all he really needs is to find some parrot trained to say the same idiotic crap over and over again.
