Did you feel the earth shake Tuesday night? That wasn’t a temblor in southern Maine; that was the Etch A Sketch working overtime as Mitt Romney prepared for last night’s debate. “I’m not going to cut taxes for wealthy people,” he said. “Everyone in American should have access to contraception . . . Our party has been focused on big business for too long.” As Bill Clinton said so memorably, that takes brass.
Still, after 90 minutes of animated, not to say aggressive, policy discussion, few voters watching last night would confuse Romney and President Obama. Despite Romney’s recent pirouette to the center, the two candidates are profoundly different in their beliefs and visions for the future of America, and that came across in sharp relief.

teachers, firemen & police are city & state employees...but most of the people in this country are employed by the private sector. We all cannot work for the government unless you live in Cuba & Russia.

Government cannot create jobs, but every chance he gets, Romney says his government policies will create jobs by cutting taxes for the wealthy and corporations. the trickle down (proven not to work) helping working people. So once again, he debates himself.
Obama rocked.
