Apparently the American people don't have enough time for Romney's explanation of his plan, so skip it because of it's length whatever it is.

obamas stutters pause's and uh's do probably add up to the difference between them. its pretty sloppy sounding from obama and romney isn't doing nearly as much.


It was REALLY bad at the start but obama has really toned it down

Here comes the obstructionism argument I suspect.

Also, ACA was done on a bipartisan basis. It was indeed originally a Republican idea pitched by Gingrich et al to counter Clinton.

well, to be honest, Republicans dropped it soon after. you can't really claim it as a republican idea anymore, just like you can't say voting against the civil rights acts are "democrat" ideas. policy positions do change over time you know.


That and while the claims of them originally being Republican ideas are true the ACA was in no way actually done in a bipartisan basis.

Romney is lying, the best line from obama so far has been about this "Romneys big bold plan is nevermind"


So Romney really wants to cut taxes and reduce deficit? Or he doesnt want to cut taxes because it would add to the deficit.
Pretty different statements..

Anyways, Romney looks pretty good in this discussion.. I always fear Obama will run out of words when he's talking..

Yeah, this. All he said that his plan has similar facets as the current law.

I figured out Romney's strategy going in here. By being so vague on his current plans, he can use the debates to pitch them and Obama can have zero ability to answer them with preparation.

If that's the case, Obama should call him on that. But Obama is the Professor not the Bulldog so I doubt that'll happen.

Romney is in a more desperate position, and it shows.

romney is doing everything he needs to win.

from the beginning his goal was to eliminate need for specifics by allaying fears during his intro.
he can now focus on the negatives - well constructed, practiced excerpts that exploit the inability of layman to fully analyze what he is avoiding

if only the american public was educated well...

sigh

Now that the healthcare debate has shifted away from the Medicare issue and is focusing on the guts of Obamacare vs Romneycare, Obama has the advantage.

7-2, Romney.

not a big fan of obamacare, although he should be saying vouchers way more here. focus on the keywords old people don't have that long of an attention span.
