Frog Eater Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 SO if I'm correct: Name drops of former Presidents, Obama 3, Romney 0.Don't think this means anything, but I find it interesting. Especially since one of them was Reagan.Romney did state that his tax policy was first suggested by Clinton's chief of staff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord O' Bones Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Holy shit. Romney just accused Obama of "trickle down" policy? Good fucking lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awesome possum Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Wow, did Romney just basically say that Obama is purposely trying to prevent people from achieving their dream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanteGabriel Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Obama is leaving too many points on the table. Seems too tentative and caught up in abstractions. Jim Lehrer is letting Romney eat his lunch. Romney is throwing out ten kinds of irredeemable bullshit every answer, but he's slinging it passionately with that alpha dick swagger that must have served him so well in his vulture capitalist career.So you want to be the head of the government even though you believe it cannot do anything good inherently? Er, why?You have identified the essential contradiction of the Reaganite horseshit that has been the GOP's only idea for 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davos Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Obama is getting his hits in.And Romney's tactic of saying " I love _____ but" and then state how he then going to destroy ____ is getting really tiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merentha Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Not a single thing of substance has been said so far in this "debate."I don't know, Obama managing to hit Romney on "hey, we just took your plan and used it on a national level" and "is your plan secret because its TOO GOOD??" was pretty solid.

Frog Eater Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Obama is surely out of touch. How can he insinuate that college kids just cant borrow the money to go to school on from their parents? Romney suggested that as his solution so it must be sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
