Obama as a great debater? FALSE PREMISE. He’s a bumbling, stuttering mess without a teleprompter. Romney would wipe the floor with Obama in a debate; Obama has no record to extol and Romney has plenty of fodder for the rotten president.
Ergo, Romney must attack Obama using the press and the internet...and, so far, he hasn't done so.
Newt on the other hand has beaten Obama to a bloody pulp!
The only reason Obama looked good in the 2008 Presidential debate is because McCain was so terrible.
The MSM will make certain that Obama is showcased in a debate no matter who on the GOP side debates him.
