In TV4's party leader debate on 11 September between, among others, Stefan Löfven and Annie Lööf, so Lööf used several ruling techniques:
1. Ruler Technique: Lööf wanted to appear more well-read by bringing a huge compendium that Löfven had not had time to read. She thought he should take her compendium home and read it. This is indirectly asking him to comment on material he gets his hands on and is unreasonable and impossible. Annie Lööf knows about that. That's why she does it. As little as Lööf is read on all material in the whole world, Löfven or Reinfeldt are. Now Löfven also claims that he had read the booklet and if he had then received it, it would have seemed even more like he had not read it.
2. Reverse sexism: By forcing material on Löfven that he did not ask for, she wanted to make it appear that he was not listening to a young girl. If he had accepted it, he would also have lost by then seeming less educated than Lööf.
3. Privacy: Löfven has the right not to accept material. It is Lööf's own problem that she tries to impose the documents she carries on others.
What can we conclude from this? Annie Lööf is want to sufficiently well-read as a politician to handle a debate without resorting to dirty tricks.
