they said someone on our side who most respresents that used car salesman sleazy type and Rendell probably being the closest.

i actually don't think that is a a bad idea. i really think the problem may have been Obama was just so turned off by rOmney that he was trying to control his own reaction in terms of looks that would easily be used against him and replayed over and over again.

in 2008 he debated Mccain. but he had respect for Mccain. and i think he really likes Kerry so even if Kerry does a romney impersonation it's still Kerry.

i think having a sleazy type could help him to control any negative reactions he might have while at the same time not letting them get away wiht bs.
