In Post-Debate Rally, Obama Says Romney Has ‘Stage 3 Romnesia’



DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — Now the sprint starts.

President Obama blasted out of the gate first thing Tuesday morning, fresh from his final debate with Mitt Romney, with exactly two weeks to go until Election Day. Appearing at a rally before 11,000 people here in the Florida sunshine, the president delivered a no-holds-barred assault on Mr. Romney, accusing his Republican rival of changing his positions so many times that he needs Obamacare to cover his pre-existing condition of “Romnesia.”

“Florida,” Mr. Obama said, “You know me. You can trust what I say.”

Mr. Obama went into a robust critique of Mr. Romney’s debate performance, calling it “at least Stage 3 Romnesia.”

“If you say you love American cars in the debate, but you wrote an article called ‘Let Detroit Go Bankrupt,’ you might have Romnesia,” Mr. Obama said. “If you can’t remember the policies on your Web site or the promises that you’ve been making over the six years you’ve been running for president, if you can’t even remember what you said last week, remember, Obamacare covers pre-existing conditions.
