I love the expression misstatement. It's straight out of newspeak.

Honestly, naked gladiator fights would be more about policy than debates are now.

Which is what the candidates should do. Just sayin'.

We could solve so many problems with naked gladiator fights.

I don't think anyone most people want to see Newt Gingrich fight Ron Paul naked in a Primary Debate.

It's like you're all trying to outdo each other in sheer useless pedantry.

I think Ron Paul would be a wily combatant. Never trust a skinny bastard in a fight, he'll give you everything he's got.

But this brings us to the question. Who would win in a bareknuckle fight between Obama and Romney? No rules except no weapons. Complete free for all.

Define "weapon." Dirt can be considered a weapon and is widely available.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Obama seems younger and less frail than Romney by a decent margin.

Weapon - Any object/item designed or used for inflicting bodily harm or physical damage. If it is attached to the body that is ok, so teeth are permitted.

So improvised weapons are okay?

Good. If professional wrestling has taught me anything, it's that fights are always improved by having chairs smashed over people's heads.

Anything not attached to the body is forbidden. Yes, there's a reason for why they have to be naked.

Yes, there is a reason. It would look ridiculous for them to be drenched in oil while wearing a business suit.

Could the combatants throw their own teeth if they get knocked out of the person's mouth during the fight?

Because I can see Obama driving a knee into Romney's back while choking him with a tie?
