Chris Said definitely won this one

I hope you realise that this is the first, the very first, time we have seen Adrian Delia in a head to head debate on television with an opponent. The first time, yes. And he was utterly hopeless. It was a walkover for Chris Said. So imagine how much more of a walkover it would be for Muscat, who unlike Said will be free to rip him to shreds completely because he is not from the same party and doesn’t have to pretend to be civilised or polite.

Delia was a mess. In order to be good on your feet in a debate you have to think strategically and work out what is coming next. He lost that. You need substance. He lost on that too. And you need conviction. He definitely lost that one because he’s never been in politics or had a sense of political activism and his lack of commitment to anything but himself was palpable. How can you speak with conviction about a political fight when you could never be arsed to do anything fighting yourself?

Hopeless. Really a useless debater. The sort of talker who’s only ‘good’ when he’s allowed to run on and on and on alone with an audience of admiring halfwits.

Those who backed this particular horse have lost all their money already, and they’ve got five years to go of watching their Adrian being jackhammered into the ground by Joseph Muscat at his bitchiest.

And as a postscript, Delia has terrible, really dreadful posture (clearly, nobody ever jabbed him in the back when he was growing up) and looked as though he had slept in his shabby clothes.

Chuck those specs away and get going. Don’t let the crooks take over the Nationalist Party.
