Wheeeeew, did I just fucking read that right? The LAST thing you want to be caught doing - and this election is a prime example of it - is LISTENING to the other party. When you're doing that, you're going to find yourself going off message, and off message is death. Try engaging the other side during your next oral argument and see where that gets you. Say it. wait for reply. Say it again differently. Wait for rebuttal. Rebut point qujckly and say it again louder the same way you first said it. Repeat as necessary.
