How do you debate someone using the Gish Gallop technique?

The definition of Gish Gallop.. which sounds like something you experience after eating bad food, basically is unloading so many lies all at once that the opponent cannot attack any of them.  It lets you win the debate (especially if the other one is not ready for it) but you've given the other side enough ammo for a zillion negative campaign ads in the end.

 

It's suggested that Romney's debate win probably made the House stay Republican, even if he himself loses the election. Only time will tell....
