Oct 2012

Some folks responding to my article on Daily Kos said that Obama should have called out all of Romney's lies and fantastic claims. Take it from me as someone who has had lots of debates with pretty high level conservatives, you cannot spend an entire debate accusing your opponent of lying even if they really are lying through the whole thing like Romney did. It just doesnt look good. I would also have been surprised by a Presidential candidate who denied their entire economic and tax plan that they had been touting for 18 months. Where do you go from/with that? I'm good at this stuff and that is a perplexing problem.
