| Rush: The debates won't happen, and here are the 2 ways Biden could duck them |
| 2020-09-28 |
| BLUF: [WND]My assumption was that Pelosi, like most Democrats, wanted to remove the debates as a variable from the equation. Voters needn't care about them, she seemed to be saying. Biden has a 7-point lead in the RealClearPolitics national polling average and still leads in most battleground states, although some are tightening up. Thus: Nothing to see here. Why even watch, America? There has to be something on Netflix. Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh, however, thinks there might be something deeper behind this. He also thinks it's why Biden's been "putting a lid" on his days -- i.e., ending any officially scheduled campaign events -- before they even begin. His theory? The coronavirus will be the Dems' deus ex machina. Limbaugh was suspicious that, on Thursday, Biden "put a lid" on his campaign day at 9:30 a.m. "I think they’re up to like 40 percent of this month Biden has had a lid on his campaign," Limbaugh said, according to a transcript from his website. "Well, nobody can figure out why, other than my suggestion (which seems to have been adopted by the conventional wisdom crowd), and that is they really, really, really are prepping him for the debate — really just going all-in on debate prep. I have my doubts. I think these people are of the mind... They’re believing their polling data, and they’re thinking, 'There’s no way that we’re gonna lose this thing unless we do something to screw up. "'So we’re gonna keep the guy in the basement so that we can’t screw up, so he can’t blow it and we’re gonna do what we can to make sure he gets at least one debate.' You know what’s gonna happen, don’t you? You know what’s gonna happen? ... No. Well, yeah, he’ll screw it up. But sometime between now and the debate ... Two scenarios. Sometime between now and the debate, they’re gonna announce that somebody near Biden has tested positive for COVID-19 and he has to quarantine," he continued. Emphasis added. |

| #3 He'll have an earpiece for sure. He'll just parrot whatever he hears. The only gaffes will be when he thinks he should add words of his own. Two ways to exploit this: intercept and decode the signal, release the audio telling Biden what to say. Or wait for the debate to start and jam the signal. |

| #2 The Democrats are under siege. Stall and delay. Should Biden be out of the picture one way or another what could they then conjure up. With the Democrats anything is possible. |
