46. It doesn't matter what the 'cuts' are because
he has already made the mistake of mentioning them. Low information voters already think he's going to cut Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid, and any amount of back tracking now, will not be believed.

This is one of the most important aspects of dealing with casual voters, whomever mentions a bill, will either get the credit or the blame. There is one caveat to that rule, if it is a low level rep, it will become invisible if some one higher up mentions it. Paul Ryan is almost totally off the radar, and Obama is squarely in the sights of those casual voters.
