What’s all this business about a new course in the Middle East? How’s that supposed to win elections? It’s free phones and other free stuff that matters. The rest is just for people who read newspapers and blogs where not a single independent voter can be found.

Anyway, it’s three days to the first debate in which everyone is predicting a loss for their own side. Exhibit A here. And Exhibit B here.

My guess, I will think Romney took him apart and Paul Krugman will think the same about Obama. I hope so anyway, at least the first part.
