There is no question that is oppotunity to leverage HC is huge.

Does anybody think that when they walk HC into the room, that America is sending a pansy to the wolves?

It is kinda a payback moment. The right has forever been portraying HC is a pit bull. BO simply has to say, yup, HC is a pit bull, and our SoState ... it is just hard to conjur an image of american softness if one emphasizes HC as the point (wo)man.

So mittens is saying "hope is not a policy" ... and is his policy reinstating the draft and sending a couple million troops to silence democracy in the M.E. .... I don't know how to articulate that, and I fear BO can't (this is a BC thingy, this articulation thingy).

But trying to communicate that I fear will not be donewell by BO. America gets the Iraq example, so BO has something to work with, but translating that into a, uhhh, polite overseer role as opposed to a my-way-or-the-highway dictator role is very very difficult to articulate.

I fear the FP debate.

The electorate has gotten a lot lot lot smarter in the last 12 years. Even the tea baggers. Folsk like Perry and Bachman were praised and then dumped in the compost, without apology, in short order once they failed the "smartness" thingy.

Dig, I'm kinda glad OB is perceived to have been beaten in the debate and so many pundits preach the election is now so close. Much of the dems were getting too cocky and this woke them back up. OB should be able to re-energize his support and undecideds in the FP debate. He's taken really good positions and HC has been darn good. If he strongly argues his successes and takes on MR's positions adding MR's inability to be consistent on anything, he'll do very well. Then only two weeks left for MR to try and recover. Dems don't want war as their kids have to fight them. The military can easily be downsized. Oh and BTW, I not sure in this day we need all those embassies. We can send a diplomat anywhere in the world in hours if need be. Otherwise we have video conferencing and email. Save some bucks and close 75% of them - they are donkeys in supersonic age with all other methods of instant communications.
