I'm not. The Globe wanted to hurry something out and didn't have the time to do anything in depth. Expect the fact checkers to be working all night and have something more substantive today.

Be nice, Howie Carr hasn't told him what to think about the debate yet.

Yep, I found it surprising the leading paper in the state ROMNEY ONCE GOVERNED and now can't command much more than 30% of the popular vote and can't EVEN get so much as an informal endorsement from a SEATED Republican Senator from his own state was as quick to accurately call the candidates on facts.

I'll look forward to anyone offering documentation that refutes anything in the article with any real substance. And Desi, I am not challenging you specifically. I have no doubt that if you feel you have something specific to say regarding the content of the article, you'll be as detailed as always. I think the contributors make clear and accurate points. If the GOP wanted to have a free ride they should not have given Romney some of the factual boners they did in coaching him. Calling the 90 billion, for green funding was all about failed loans to campaign contributors for instance was factually indefensible, but as well all know, very few voters would do enough homework to see through the lie that was told.

Not surprised. But that IS FUNNY.
I thought Romney was against gays Guess he threw all that "NOT GOD'S WAY" shit out cause it also won't sell to the middle that he's clawing away trying to get.

Here is a link that goes over every single point Romney said. Romney told 27 myths in 38 minutes.

Changing our tune?

Factcheck.org is owned by the Annenberg Public Policy Center, which ran the Annenberg Foundation, which gave Obama his start in "Community Organizing".

Hardly an unbiased, non partisan group.

Any guesses which of our esteemed posters said that?

N.B. I'm not doubting Factcheck.org's veracity. Just smiling at shifting efforts to impeach inconvenient witnesses.

Actually Robbie... the sources cited in the article provided by Sternskipperwere from outside sources with impeccable reputatuions. Calling them names or calling names will never lower them to say, your level for instance. have you ever considered Lucy may have completely nailed your modus, by questioning if you axctually read the articles you cite? Example:

"
However, Romney continued to struggle to explain how he could possibly offset such a large loss of revenue without shifting the burden away from upper-income taxpayers, who benefit disproportionately from across-the-board rate cuts and especially from elimination of the estate tax (which falls only on estates exceeding $5.1 million left by any who die this year). The Tax Policy Center concluded earlier this year that it wasn’t mathematically possible for a plan such as Romney’s to cut rates as he promised without either favoring the wealthy or increasing the federal deficit.
Except for saying that his plan would bring in the same amount of money “when you account for growth,” Romney offered no new explanation for how he might accomplish all he’s promised. He just repeated those promises in some of the strongest terms yet.? = Romney is making it up as he goes along.
  Vote for bullshit artists all you want. You are as you love to say counting eggs... but in your case before you even have them. Sorry, your "Aha" moment fizzled.

On the bright side Letterman said "The debate was so popular in terms of viewership, Mitt's money watched from the Caman Islands."
