How about instead of a debate, we have the candidates in a tinwhistle competition?
And John would, of course, be playing a Kerry Pro! 
Edit: I’m sorry, someone had to go there eventually.
To make it fair, they are both play Shaws.
If they made a Middle-Eastern version of the Shaw Low-D, you could have the “Shaw of Iran” or something.
I had this idea of PVC pipe protective cases for tinwhistles called “Whistle Silos”.
We have to limit our purchases of aluminum tubing these days to prevent nuclear whistle inspections.
I was watching a debate last night. It was the Oklahoma senatorial debate. It was nice to see somebody with a doctorate, on television, who knew how to use “idn’t” and “wadn’t” in a sentence.
Oh, you’re not talking about them WMD’s now are you? 
Shame, shame, for shame.
Ay yi yi…I knew there was a reason to avoid this thread. I refuse to add anything to it 
Since neither of them actually play how about giving them brass low Ds and letting them try to club the other into submission.They are kinda bullies anyway…Won’t let Nader on the playground.
Yeah… I saw the debate… didn’t seem to be nearly as much substance as just they both had the idea that to win you just had to be the most confident-looking.
Let’s replace the final debate with a low-D-athon.
I can imagine Cheney and Edwards playing whistle a lot more easily than Bush and Kerry.
Something about Edwards’ mouth and Cheney’s overall look I suppose.
Beautiful setup, Daniel. I do favor the stupid puns myself, but that one’s sure a doozy!
too bad clarke is out of the race..
as is howard
we’re going to cran, we’re going to roll, we’re going to cut… YYYEEEAAAGGHHH!!!
Perhaps Bush could play a SYN. You know–wrong whistle, wrong tune, wrong session, . . .
Bet Bush would give his eye teeth for a whistle of mass destruction…oh no, I forgot, it doesn’t actually exist. : 
And Bush could have say…Joannie Madden playing for him offstage through that big box on his back…
Philo
Clark Howard? I din’t know he was running…
Joke heard on Radio 4: If Kerry is a sweater, does that make Bush a little tank top? (not my joke thankfully). Bring back Clinton and then we can go back to the dry cleaner jokes I say!
You know, thats the thing about text. I really have NO idea whether you’re kidding or not. This is one of those things that could be clarified by a smiley (heheh).
What, you mean you’ve never heard of Clarke Howard?
