Mr X, in 30 seconds or less do one of the following:
A) Repeat any prepared soundbite
B) Justify your love of puppies, unicorns, and rainbows
C) Look senile by being unable to hear the question [McCain only]

Oh, and none of them know a damned thing about economics. All of them deferred to the Fed on the economy (McCain gave a rainbows-and-puppies answer that a zero percent interest rate would be great). None of them seemed to understand how the foreign exchange rate or trade deficits work. They are less worse [ed: worster-er-est?] than Democrats on the economy by instinct but it is disheartening to learn they don't know why.
