President Barack Obama has been onstage with Mitt Romney now for a collective three hours and has yet to enunciate anything within hailing distance of a second-term agenda.
He wants to “win the future,” he just doesn’t have a very clear idea about how to do it. His slogan is “forward,” but his campaign is unmistakably backward-looking. His case for reelection has about as much to do with the past four years of the Bush administration as the next four years of the prospective second Obama administration.
All of his campaign’s energy has been devoted to tearing down Romney. If a fraction of its effort had been spent on coming up with a few new proposals around which Obama could wrap a fresh-feeling policy platform, he wouldn’t be forced to run such a remorselessly negative campaign. He could do more — at least as much as is possible for an incumbent president — to keep the mantle of hope and change.
The irony is that Obama aides always said that it would be a choice election. They were right. But they have been running as if the election were a referendum on the challenger. The only real choice that the Obama campaign has offered is one between believing Romney is a heartless right-wing extremist and believing Romney is a soulless opportunist.
This has allowed Romney, pricelessly, free running to present himself as the man with the plan.

Obama still looking sickly awful with black sunken eyes. This photo is from debate #2. What an awful look on his face. I heard that doing split screens (by the camera crew) was suppressed during debate #2. Meaning we didn't get to see Bamster's face while Romney was speaking
Obama probably chugged down some black coffee right before the debate. A few ciggies too to stimulate his dim mental processes
Just remember, there are no delicatessens under Communism
Seinfeld:
Episode: “THE RACE”
Mickey: “There are no delicatessens under communism.”
Kramer: “Woah, why not?”
Mickey: “Well, because the meats are divided into a class system. You’ve got pastrami and corned beef in one class and salami and bologna in another. That’s not right.”
Kramer: “So you can’t get corned beef?”
Mickey: “Well, you know, if you’re in the Politburo, maybe.”

Lowry is no Libtard and I am shocked Politico lets him write for them.
Are they trying to show some balance? The whole piece is strange for them to print.
YouTube search results for “seinfeld” “communist”...
Lots of good clips from the episode. I couldn’t find the complete episode.
He’s a cokehead - BIGTIME.
Looks like he’s having a choom gang flash back...When he and his buddies would suck the last marijuana smoke from the sealed VW bus
Once a choomer always a choomer
I like my golf game in the high 70's too. Any higher than that and it is just too hot to play.
