Excuses, Excuses
Advice for candidates: go to the bathroom before the debate and make sure there's a fresh battery in your hearing aid.
According to the AP, inability to hear and a need to pee were Tommy "Not Fred" Thomspon's excuses for giving an answer that was the opposite of what he says he intended in the GOP presidential primary debate at the Reagan Library. Thompson and his campaign have spent the past week digging out of the hole of his apparent rejection of GLBT employment rights.
Compare the cost of a hearing aid battery and a decent debate coach to the cost of lost campaign donations.
