LAS VEGAS Even at a resort hotel, President Obama says spending all day prepping for a debate "is a drag."
"They're making me do my homework," he said in a phone call with a political volunteer during a visit to his campaign field office in Henderson, about a 30-minute drive from his debate camp at Lake Las Vegas.
He said the debate preparation was going great, but "basically they're keeping me indoors all the time."
But they did allow him to take a break and drop by his local campaign storefront. He walked in with six pizzas as a way of saying thanks to the 20 or so volunteers there.
"I know everybody has been working really hard," he said, though he mistakenly said there were 34 days left to the campaign. His volunteers knew there were 36 days left.
"Whatever it is," he said, "it's really coming up quick." He said the race in Nevada was going to be "be close all across the country."
Can Romney redefine himself in this week's debate? Obama holds slight lead ahead of debate Obama camp plays down debate expectations Let the debates begin He also sounded like he was worried about some kind of October surprise surfacing during this month.
"There are going to be a number of other things we can't expect over the next couple of weeks," he said. He didn't elaborate, but he delivered a decidedly optimistic refrain.

So debate prep is a “Drag”. Must be getting his debate prepping from Barney Frank.
Figures!!!!!
[”There are going to be a number of other things we can’t expect over the next couple of weeks,” he said.]
If “we can’t expect” them how does he know they’re going to happen? This is how this guy thinks and talks without a script.
Romney won’t get the chance unless he has an opening, this is domestic policy, if he can work it in somehow, he needs to devote the last debate to all that.
This first debate Romney needs to make it 2 full hours of complete ridicule and shame on Obama for his economic policies. Keep dragging it back to the economy and it will be brutal for Obama, that is what hits home....the money in the pocket.
Sadly, he’s going to CREAM Romney in the debates. Hes GLIB and he turns on that smile that makes people forget the EVIL behind it.
Aw, man. They’re treatin him like a dog.
Obviously, when you are the “smartest man in the world”, you don’t NEED coaching. He will be ever soooooo cool at the debates......until Romney wipes the floor with him.
I can only hope Mittens goes for the throat right out of the box and never lets up till Odumbo is HISTORY, bad history.
Guess he’d prefer to be on the View than prep for debate.
Well, you, I and other political junkies (Freepers, talk radioa listeners and people that seek alternate internet news sources for their unvarnished news) know of Obama's screw ups and crappy policies. However, with the main stream media in the sack with Obama, there remains a great portion of society that just isn't informed or really don't care. Let's see how the debates play out and how the media covers the aftermath.
if he keeps the whole debate on the economy, he’ll hammer Obama, if they start going off onto other domestic crap like contraception, Romney should just say “respectfully i think the economy is way more pressing than birth control pills” and go back to the economy whether they like it or not.
Exactly. I remember a black Detroit mfg. worker interviewed in the mid-80’s who thought Reagan wasn’t all that great on the “civil rights thing” but he was the richest he’d ever been in his life. “I’ll have to vote my wallet”
Yep, thanks to the MSM, he has never had to worry about any stinking facts getting in the way of his agenda. Now he resents having to spend time figuring out how to misrepresent all the carnage he has wrought.
He doesn’t need security briefings, he doesn’t need debate prep.
Oh my, and, of course, when he does poorly they will say he has been too busy to prepare for the debates. Excuse, after excuse, after excuse for Obama. The bottom line is...the Dems are stuck with a lazy, non-achiever who can only offer ridicule, criticisms and blame others and has no ability to do anything positive. He can only destroy what exists and that is where his focus is and has been. How do you turn the destruction he has achieved in this country into a positive? And...How do you do that when your man can't use a teleprompter to help him out?
Odinga is not interested in winning another tern nor are his Moslem handlers. They have inflicted their damage planned in the four years of change.
They have added 6 Trillion to our national debt
They have moved the caliphate forward across the ME by making America look week starting with Odinga’s speech in Egypt.
Obama has abandoned Israel and allowed it to be surrounded on all sides by countries vowing to destroy it.
Obama and company has allowed the further infiltration of our government of Moslem savages taking over our way of life from within.
No they are finished this round. Time to crawl back into their 3rd world caves, formulate next move and implement next attack on our culture.
This CHANGE went much better and faster than they ever imagined due to the ineptness of the FERAL Congress, MSM and American Sheeple.
So ? let’s see now, he says “ just bumps in the road “ or ? our allies are “ noise “ ... he tells the American people that “ you didn’t build that “ .... and now his spokes woman says average Americans are to stupid to understand his “ Professional “ answers....
