And apparently only Romney/Ryan have to have the specifics, let alone actually "pay for" (even though I hate that phrasing) tax cuts. $103 billion worth.

Obama is not the one arguing that the deficit needs to be eliminated right this second.

I'm referring to the relentless attack on the Romney/Ryan tax plans. They are always criticized for not "paying for" their tax cuts.

And rightly so.  Where are the details?

Same question for O?

Didn't he send one to Congress this year?  you know, the Congress that has vowed to make him a 'one term President'?

Romney is the one that claims his tax plan will be deficit neutral, and Romney is the one who has provided the numbers that thus far do not add up. Why do you think that he should be immune from criticism when gobbledygook comes out of his mouth? If he would like to avoid criticism, he could produce some numbers that meet the criteria he has claimed his tax plan will meet or he could walk back/modify his claims about it.

Looks like they've tied up the election in order to sell more commercial time and to strengthen news audience numbers.

I'm assuming this is all entertainment based now.

Figures they would wear those shirts at a Biden rally...

Someone get Hoss a pacifier.

WSJ Headline (referring to Romney): "A Perfectly Plausible President"

Really? Plausible? Talk about damning with faint praise.

They're probably afraid of that angry face Obama flashed last night.
