Which Romney are we talking about here? I've seen so many lately!

The e-mails sent out by each of the campaigns show a major difference between the campaigns. The Pres. Obama's e-mails described what was actually happening during the debate. Pres. Obama was confidently winning the debate with his foreign policy expertise while Romney was just basically agreeing that the President was correct in his foreign policy approach to Iraq, Afganistan, Egypt, Iran, Syria, etc. In contrast, the e-mails that Romney sent out had nothing to say about debates. The e-mails were just tired slogans about helping him bring America back and helping him restore the America that Romney loves. Pres. Obama has many ideas to keep America moving forward. Romney and Ryan want to return America to a past that they love where women had no equal pay, there were no abortion rights, there was no Medicare, no social safety net, a world of few business regulations, a world where robber barons controlled the economy, when most people worked for little pay, had no benefits, and generally lived short lives. These are the so-called glory days that Romney and Ryan will return America back to if they are elected.

What Joe said!!!

Ditto Joe. It scares to heck out of me to think of Romney in the oval office. I don't think America will survive it.

No question here, Romney showed his true colors. He is willing to say whatever he thinks we want to hear. Depending on his audience he will make stuff up to try and appease them.

Anyone know if the President's new plan is posted online? They've apparently made millions of copies to hand out, but don't think online. A little disappointed since only 2 weeks to election, but better late than never. I hope is fills the blank spot and addresses tax reform and spending reforms (e.g., entitlements).

Although we need to raise revenues to help close DEBT gap, I'd be careful w this shaky economy. Many think"During the Clinton years, we raised taxed yet saw growth". However, some big differences now vs 90s:

(1) We saw a large increase in productivity and growth was spurred in 90s as a result of the Internet boom (and increased use of computers). In fact, such a boom it formed a bubble that popped in 2000 ("Dot Com Crash").

(2) The Republican Congress and Clinton implemented some important reform (e.g., Welfare) which helped the economy by increasing confidence and improving incentives.

(3) We face much much stiffer competition from global competitors.

(4) Higher ratio of entitlement recipients/workers compared to 90s.

(5) Global slowdown vs 90s.

(6) It's new post "credit boom" and the new normal.

In sum, our circumstances today are much different compared to 90s. We need tax reform (simplifying) and overall spending reforms ASAP.
