"Mitt, I don't know where you pulled those numbers from..?"

"But we are very proud of our record for the last 4 years".

I would like for the President or the Vice President to say that when Romney or Ryan begin their litany of everything that is wrong with our economy.

"Mitt, can you tell us what you would do different from George W.?"

"Why isn't our economy doing better? The fact is that we still haven't recovered from the disaster your Party left this country. We were on the verge of collapse. Now you want to return to those same policies and do away with the regulations we have put in place to prevent it from happening again. Your numbers are wrong Mitt. And so are your policies."

1. Sounds and straightforward.

2. All very good

but Mitt has lies ready for the GWB question. He used them at the last debate. Of course he was vague, but he claimed he was closing loopholes which was novel etc. So the question should read:

Mitt, can you tell us what you would do different from George W.? Taxcuts won't help, and they reduce revenue which increases the deficit. Even if by some miracle you can find enough loopholes that in reality increase the middle class's tax burden to make it "revenue neutral", you still won't be reducing the deficit. If you try to do that by cutting government, there won't be any government left and then when snake oil salesman are selling poison as medicine, there won't be an FDA to stop them, when thieves at the big banks try to make trillion dollar derivative bets there won't be no SEC and Treasury Dept to stop them. when children turn on PBS to learn, there'll just be static etc

The economy question is good, but it should emphasize how much recovery we actually managed, given the GOP damage, and that better times are ahead.

7. "...but it should emphasize how much recovery we actually managed.."

Agree.

3. Obama just needs to ask

Mitt exactly how he plans to pay for the $5T tax cuts. He needs to tell him that the numbers don't add up, and we need to know if the middle-class is going to end up paying for it with benefits taken away? Is he going to do away with the mortgage deduction? Details, Mitt, we want details!

His smoke and mirrors doesn't cut it.

5. He took his head out of his ass just long enough to grab the numbers.

6. Stronger

"Governor Romney, if those numbers were at all accurate I would have to agree with you. However, those numbers, along with so many others things you've said during this campaign are complete fabrications."

I'd like to see Mitt hold his fake smile while Obama calls him a liar to his face

8. Mitt, I can see your campaign has been studying the book, "How to Lie with Statistics..."
