(Man 2: Kerry dumps your Mom so he can marry a rich chick. But then you live in a mansion!) Personality A.K.A. the drinking buddy test (Man: Both of 'em can afford to buy an extra round- neither will) (Woman: Kerry's the better conversationalist, but Bush knows more drinking games.)

Defense, A.K.A. who wouldn't watch your back in a fight? (Man: Bush ran away.) (Woman 2: Kerry fought, but then he apologized and now he won't stop talking about it.)
