It's nearly unbelievable President Obama didn't come out fighting in the debate last evening in Denver.
At least twice, former Liberal Massachusetts Governor, now uber-conservative Republican Mitt Romney brought up his lie that this administration was going to take $716 billion from Medicare and put it on the Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare").
It's a known, proven lie and the President let him get away with it at least two times. (For more on the $716 billion lie, see the 2nd link, below).
What is that about?
He needed to go after Romney and this point, at least briefly, and show it was not only untrue but that it will save the US many more millions in our health care spending.
The Obama campaign must now take on the theme Alice Cooper so eloquently put it, years ago:
