Obama needs to bring down the Boom!

[edhopper]

Obama looks to have the big advantage on Romney over foreign policy.
But he can't sit back and expect facts and reason to win the day.
Romney will lie, contort and attack him for the most trivial and insipid things.
Obama needs to shut him down. Not let a single salvo go unanswered.
Show Willard is a man who is an embarrassment overseas and unwelcome in Europe.

1. OK, but money talks.

I'm beginning to realize that these debates don't matter as much anymore when you consider the millions of dollars spent on the campaigns. Money talks and even if Obama thrashes Romney, which is unlikely, Romney's multi-million dollar blitz campaign of lies that will begin tomorrow in the swing states is likely to sway the undecided in his direction. When Supreme Court made a decision on Citizens United, it undermined the democratic process that has made this government for the people and by the people.

3. The latest plutocracy gains via SCOTUS are incredibly troubling, money can buy you anything & it

seems to have reached the highest level. Founding fathers are turning over in their graves & I wonder how much more we the
people will endure and tolerate. These are very troubling times. Edited to add: Welcome to DU.
