Chris Kofinis just put out what I think is a GREAT IDEA for Debate number II

He said that it is imperative President Obama continues with the vigor, the excitement and the tenor of the speeches he is giving on the stump since the first debate and stay on a roll of high energy.

He says that being precise and on top of the information really helps when confronted with a person who distorts it. That President Obama will be credible and presidential if he rebuts the accusations with instant knowledge of the real numbers.

His suggestion is for the stump speeches to include some of these facts starting now, when Obama is in his element and is rousing the masses. That way, when he is confronted in the next debate subconscious confidence and knowledge will emerge spontaneously.

These are not the words he used exactly but it's the gist of it. And I think it's absolutely right, and brilliant.
