You’re smart too, scipio.
To answer your question, it’s clear these debates are geared for the undecided, independent voters, at least that is how it’s supposed to be. If what I hear about Biden having had to cheer up the dem base is true, this administration may be in more trouble than I thought.
As a rule, (and I’ll paraphrase Rush here), liberals can never tell you what their real plan is, or they’d never win a presidential election. That’s why Obama is campaigning to the right of where he really is.
Romney, on the other hand, has a bunch of consultants in the beltway who in some cases probably believe the New York Times or folks like Neal Boortz who say to tread lightly with women and gays or they and the independents will flee, as though independent voters like myself (although I vote exclusively GOP now to save the country) are looking for any flaw to run into the arms of those “caring”, fuzzy democrats.
So basically, a republican candidate has to be anything but conservative in their view, as El Rushbo would say.
–Of course in Boortz’s case, he speaks about slavery from the hip and has said some controversial things about people with disabilities.
