Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

The problem with this is that zingers, in order to be effective, have to be used with an ear for context and timing. Not only is there no indication that Romney has any sense of the latter, the former seems to be pretty alien to him as well. If he does this once or twice he could get some positive spin out of it and do better in the polls. If he does it a bunch of times he doesn't create a better image for himself, just a slightly different bad one.

Anyway, my official debate prediction is 'a hot mess', and I'll stand by that.
