What would be the most damaging question asked of Kerry?
We must all try to develop some worst-case scenarios of questions asked of Kerry during the debate, so we can come up with effective defenses.
There will be leading questions, questions with false presumptions, attacks disguised as questions, and probably several other permutations.
I can think of one or two, but I wonder if airing them will provide ammunition to our opponents. But if we are to have any hope of preparing for them, we must identify all possible lines of attack.
I'll let you folks come up with the best questions and defenses. Here are two of my own 'hard questions':
- If you believe that moving focus from Al Queda to Iraq was such a grave mistake, then why aren't you advocating an immediate withdrawal from Iraq with a repositioning of our forces to Afghanistan? Wouldn't such a plan address that error?
- How can you say that tax incentives for companies to stop offshoring of U.S. jobs will be effective, when countries like India and China are paying their workers one-tenth the wages that U.S. workers receive? How can any corporate tax break compete with that?
