It's certainly working with his Dem base. If independents are being swayed, Romney will need to demonize Buffet as an outlier.

I didn't mean he would make errors today. He is very effective. However, he loves the camera and the more he speaks the more chance of errors. It is just math to me. I am hopeful, but not stupid. I realize he promises candy and they eat it up.

Perhaps we will lose and he is in for another 4 years. There may be little that can be done to save the world now in it's destabilized condition. As I stated, I am just hopeful.

"The Buffet attack is working. It puts the Republicans in a real bind."

Even though the "Buffet Plan" is bad policy, I think the Republicans should counter with the idea that if the objective is to equalize tax rates, the government should lower the tax rate on the middle class to equal that of the rich rather than raise the tax rate on the rich to equal the middle class. That should be very popular to all tax payers.
