re: #186 Dark_Falcon

That line can only be used in a debate on the margins, meaning as a response to a detailed follow-up. For the main question, Romney has to make clear what he wants to do and how he intends to do it. And then he has to be ready to defend it, because Obama will surely move to counter any plan put forward.

Romney’s campaign has relied upon not taking a stance that it can’t slither out from under when pounded on. If he stands up there on stage and starts adding details on what his plans are, he’s either gonna further alienate independents or he’s gonna totally discourage the base.

I figure he’s gonna do what he did during the Republican primary debates: He’s gonna try to avoid direct confrontation and focus instead on doing nothing more than offering criticism to anything Obama puts forward. His focus is going to be on “looking presidential.”
