Kate,
You make a great point, and we have all seen him get mad and then say something he later regretted. His offer to be Perry in the debate is a great example. I hope Obama makes him mad, and then we’ll see the fun begin!

Will Rogers said that if you don’t like the weather in Oklahoma, just wait a minute. The same could be said of Mitt Romney about anything he says.

Romney can memorize all the zingers he wants but unless President Obama says something that gives him the opportunity to use them properly, he’ll look like the idiot he truly is. His biggest problem during the primary debates was losing the ability to remain on an even keel when any of his opponents dared to question him. Romney is so used to being the CEO, the Bishop, the patriarch of his family, that he believes he is always in charge and his word should be taken as gospel. However, Romney has certainly given us reason not to trust a word that comes out of his mouth.

Hearing Romney complain that “President Obama has a tendency to say things that aren’t truthful” didn’t infuriate me, it had me literally LOL! The fact that he could say that and then pretend to be hesitant to use the word “liar” as can easily be said about him is quite ironic. This is just another sign that Mitt thinks of voters as dumb, easily persuaded idiots without the ability to think for themselves. Unfortunately for Mitt, he’s dead wrong. The voters in this country are quite aware of Mitt’s inability to ever speak the truth. If he truly believed in God and everything that is in the book of Mormon, I would have thought he’d be afraid of God striking him dead for such an outright lie.

But what is it right now in front of this audience? Romney’s a slimy, greasy moving target with serious weasel overtones. Romney’s flipped from pro-Romneycare to anti-Obamacare, and now he agrees with parts of Obamacare after all. What will he say next Wednesday?

steve,
I think he job would be easy, because whatever the issue, Kerry could take an y position and Romney would have said that, and the opposite. i.e. Abortion-choice or “pro-life” either way he has said he is both.

As Obama’s “sparring partner,” John Kerry must have a monumental challenge. How can Kerry possibly know what Romney’s current position is on any issue? Other than “47%,” that is. One other thing: it’s been 35 years or so, and disco still sucks!

I hope Pres. Obama gets to say, “there you go again,” before Mitt uses it.. Bob Dole in a Viagra commercial is going to look much better than Mitt Romney talking about the economy, or anything else.

Bob Dole at least did a service for men everywhere, but Mitt is just one of those uptight, condescending to women, Republicans in denial. Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan and even Richard Nixon were better presidents than Mitt would be

I’m getting busy with my chores, want to have everything done by Wednesday to watch the debate and the “zingers”. I don’t usually count my chickens, but I feel that the Game Changer was “47″% and the debate may not matter at all. Or, I can imagine something like the Texas/Oklahoma football game last night, and Obama is David Ash, the near perfect quarterback.

Go Barack!!!

Makes one wonder just what a “zinger” is to Mitt. Guess we’ll find out soon enough!

avahome,
I think it might be an “historic” election because of the loss of a Republican when the Democratic incumbent has such a poor economy to explain. The reality is that the “Republicans only have themselves to blame for this loss, and if something about the party doesn’t change before 2016, I predict there will be ANOTHER “Democrat elected.

Willow,
After the pick of Palin, you’d think Romney would have learned something, but the pick of Ryan was almost as offensive to women, given “Todd Akin” and Ryan’s “forcible rape” bill that he sponsored with Akin.
