I agree that Obama should have brought up the 47% when Romney said that he cares about the middle class and the poor.

The $716B cut in Medicare is not a cut at all. It is the savings that is derived from the insurance premium being lower (due to more people are covered) and the lower cost of prescription drugs). How could one of the smartest person not bring that one and throw it to Romney's face? In addition, Ryan's plan also would have that same $ 716B "cut".

Looking down 90% of the time when Romney talked to him is a no no. That is covered in Debate 101 course.

Like I said to Manalagi, if debates were that critical in an election, we would be just ending President Kerry's second term. He slammed Bush in all three debates by 20+ pts.
