Beyond
digging through Romney lies regarding Ryan’s debate history, the key question for tomorrow is...
Will Ryan outshine Romney’s 'Gish Gallop' debate tactic on Thursday?
The
Gish Gallop debate tactic was developed by Duane Gish. The technique
involves drowning out one’s opponent with a “torrent of half-truths, lies,
and straw-man arguments that the opponent can’t
possibly answer every falsehood in real time.”
Romney
stated "27 lies in 38" minutes during
the first presidential debate. Let’s see
if Paul can beat Romney’s record tomorrow night!
P.S.
Other
things to look for when Ryan debates are characteristics observers saw in Ryan’s
1998 debate for Congress: completely ignoring the moderators, deceptive, refusing to
answer questions, and showing pretended indignation when caught off his game.
