Today's a nail-biter: will Obama be able to walk that thin line between responding to the audience and maintaining his trademark politeness while making sure that everyone knows that Mitt is lying?
Which Willard will walkout tonight? The snarky, interruptive, obnoxious one from the primary debates? The fake moderate? Someone new?
The GOP has its dog whistles, and we do not. We have some very good words that we can work into questions. Like:
Mitt, you said in our first debate that it doesn't save money to send jobs to China. Why are you letting Bain ship the Sensata jobs to China?
Why did your campaign force the miners to be part of a TV commercial for you? They all lost a day's wage.
Why do you lack the moral fiber to call out your friends, like the Koch brothers, when they threaten their employees with termination if they don't vote for you? Don't you believe in winning fairly?
Is it true that you won't release your tax returns because you paid no taxes in 2009?
Why don't you support the DREAM act?
Why do you want to overturn Roe v Wade?
What tax loopholes will you close?
While we wait, here's some truth that lacks politeness.
