How can we start "working the ref" by Tuesday? We need to start Tweeting

Candy Crowley and demanding that she points out and questions Romney on his flip flops, Bain, taxes, and so many other things. I want her to call out Rilomney for the lies he told in the first debate. We need our surrogates to start doing this to.

I posted BEFORE the debate on Thursday that a Biden win would be negatively framed as his bullying Ryan.

I can tell you now, a strong performance by Barrack Obama will be framed as DESPERATE!

The "rules" for these debates have now been defined around what it took to make Romney the "winner" in the first debate.

Facts, reality and truth (at least for Romney/Ryan) do not count.

Being forceful is the metric.

Gotta make sure going in that it is allowable for the President to take shots at Romney.

I'm sorry, but I have now moved into total "while I generally don't want to run the world, I strongly believe I need to run the world for the next month or so."

Here's how you do it:

TWEET TAUNT AFTER TAUNT ABOUT ARE YOU GOING TO BE AS GOOD AS MARTHA RADDATZ????

MS. CROWLEY, CAN YOU DO AS PROFESSIONAL A JOB AS MS. RADDATZ?

MIX THEM UP AND FUCKING RINSE LATHER REPEAT

The path forward is simple. The answers are out there. I believe I have most of them because they are so damn obvious.

Candy Crowley WISHES she could come away from her debate with the broad spectrum worship that Martha Raddatz has, deservedly, obtained.

You hit her on wanting to be like her female counterpart who showed how it's done.

Everyone on board????

Crowley must be drooling over the cred Raddatz rightfully established.
