Analysis
Advantages for Romney
- Romney reportedly "may be a little further ahead in his preparations." He has been practicing with RINO Rob Portman. [1]
- Two debates will focus on domestic policy while another town hall debate which will likely focus on the terrible economy. While Obama will probably blame the economic crisis on Bush, Romney will surely have the upper hand when it comes to economic issues.
Advantages for Obama
- Romney will face trouble from the moderators all of which are very liberal and will likely give "softball questions" to Obama.
- The last debate is focused on foreign policy. Despite losing thousands of heroic American lives due to mismanaged wars and ROEs which give the upper hand to terrorists, Obama claims it was his decision to take out Bin Laden and is supported in this unlikely claim by the liberal media.
