all agreed, my point is force the mathematical requirement that the formula provides.
He says close loopholes and deductions, but most have no clue what component of current deficits or future Romney tax "cuts" can be measurably offset.
The middle class, generally, owns calculators, but the information is not provided.
I, obviously being a dual use person, only own a smoking rack, but having been given a long time ago beads and shells from my children at times they thought it would cheer me up after e.g the loss of my parents ... so I have an abacus.
The seashell stone-bead wood-chip smoking rack abacus is all that Romney will never be. It is honest, it is full of heart and soul, and it requires simple data to give simple results. And in times of requirement or desire, for distraction or leisure, it abandons tasks of math and smokes fish.
It could be argued that if I made enough that I might afford a marginal rate and so on for a nuclear powered titanium abacus.
No. Not so.
Obama was on the cusp of this message. Basic security, opportunity, and community. I worry he lost that message.
Axelrod is THE god of staying on message, we'll see how he performs now, he does not have a rich resume of running from behind the narrative. Obviously, if you are good at his job, you never run from behind the narrative, that is the whole damn point. I did catch some Axelrod in the post game show, and I said to my wife on face recognition that "a nuke cannot knock this guy off message" and then I turned up the volume. My wife agreed. The man, she said, can really stay on message.
Obama now needs to respond to another that has been given the opportunity to acquire message, and he needs to maul him. A component of Am Boa has loosened, Am Boa operates best from a position of complete narrative control.
The narrative is now briefly loose.
I am very curious to see just how good these guys are. I tis not as if they have not had narrative moments. Many would have been felled by L Farakahn. Many.
So, lets see. I think we can be confident of two things:
1. Mitt is more formidably than given credit for
2. Mitt has acquired a team of neocon wackos with no skills at all.
If he turns to his team he is toast.
