(1,068 posts)I understand your arguments and some of your points are valid but what the press says and what educated voters see are two different things. Mitt will be exposed at the debates simply because he is an arrogant man who has no idea whatsoever how the majority of us live. The debates are about the only time that the candidates are really forced to explain their positions and and their past statements. Obama is a excellent debater and he will have all the facts and counter points in his head.
I know the common belief is that the media wants a close race because it ups their ratings but in 2008 the race was supposedly close and we know what happened then. The media can only do so much and the fact of the matter is this, the uneducated political voter is already going to vote for Romney because the don't know any better. They didn't vote for him in 2008 and they won't vote for him now. I bet that 99% percent of the people who call themselves Tea Party members did not vote for Obama in 2008. Although I am worried about November I am confident that despite the money Obama will be reelected.
