I did write deficit, and it is debt.

That changes everything, doesn't it Buzz??

I mean $1.3 trillion in deficit is OK??

And $15 trillion is a manageable debt, right?

So why would we want a guy that can manage finances over a guy that can't??

My bad...........

Because he has done a much better job with it than the republicans that have held the office in our lifetimes.

The facts and numbers tell a different story.
By what measurement known to man is this guy doing a good job with the economy?

I would be ashamed to call myself a Democrat after what Harry Reid has said, even Jon Stewart had the guts to put Reid in his place. More Dems should stand up and say enough is enough. Run your campaign with your record and let the chips fall where they may.

Is Romney's tax return going to determine whether or not you vote for him? seriously doubt it since by your statement you are assuming that both candidates are crooked

Just saw a new ad on TV during the Olympic coverage...they led with how much Romney made (20 million) but only paid 14% in taxes...well of course he did, because his investment income is taxed at a different rate than John Q Public that is taxed at 30-35 % and has little to no investment income....but who paid more in taxes ?

Sounds like we should be looking for a president that is on welfare and doesn't have two nickels to rub together. Thats what i am hearing at least. A responsible, intelligent, wealthy man who knows how to make money by not spending it sounds prudent to me.....

I just don't understand why you guys are ok with people that make much more money than you paying less as a percentage of their income than you do. Their is nothing wrong with making a lot of money, but their is something wrong with having less fortunate people carry your water.

George Soros has made much more than Romney. So has Warren Buffett. So does that make those liberals more qualified to be president than Romney?

So who paid more in taxes? The "poor guy" or the "rich guy?"
