Subject: Intellectual props for debate 

I read this little gem in the New York Times the other day.

It seems that the Quayle people and the Gore people met recently to work
out the details of the upcoming debate.  The Quayle handlers wanted to
know if props were acceptable.  They had a notion that Quayle would wave
around a copy of Gore's book on the environment and perhaps read some
"incriminating" passages from it on the air.  The Gore people said that
would be fine as long as Gore could hold up a potato.

I thought I heard Al say that that STARK II fell over because Bush took James
Baker out out the state dept. to rescue any hope of re-election.  Is there any
truth to that?  I notice Dan squirmed a lot when Gore put that question to him
asking if there was still an agreement.  Although Dan stammered and shifted the
topic quickly, it seemed obvious to me it an uncomfortable topic for him. 
Anybody else notice that?

Maybe so, but both Gore and Quayle changed the subject, Dan perhaps more
than Gore, when the topic was one that they were had on.  Would be nice
if they could have a moderator press a buzzer everytime one of them
changed the subject. 

Gore was articulate on many stuff, but yes, they were canned and
rehearsed responses.  But he did have the strategy of ending his
speeches with a question or challange to Quayle, to try to keep him on
the defensive.  Quayle didn't always bite.

    This gem appeared in the Oct. 14 NYT: 

         FISHING FOR A PHRASE, AND GETTING TANGLED

         While Vice President Dan Quayle was in Atlanta yesterday for
         his debate with Senator Al Gore, he visited a job training 
         center and talked up the Bush Administration's employment
         programs.  To make a point, he reached back into his memory
         bank and pulled up the Chinese proverb that goes:  "Give a
         man a fish and you feed him for a day.  Teach a man to fish
         and you feed him for a lifetime."

         Except it came out like this:
         "If you give a person a fish, they'll fish for a day.  But if
         you train a person to fish, they'll fish for a lifetime.

That's *exactly* the reason they're not hitting on Iran/Contra hard.  In spite
of all of the GOP nasty attacks, the CNN daily tracking poll stays steady at
10+ points for Clinton.  No need for him to wallow in the mud just yet...
