I watched the presidential debates. My verdict not surprisingly perhaps is that the president won convincingly. I would maybe give Mr.Romney more credit if his campaign was based on substance. I believe that the american electorate is more astute politically than they are given credit for.

Mr.Romney is very good at delivering his campaign talking points but he carefully treads no further.  President Obama was in campaign mode as well. The president was most effective in revealing the shallowness of Mr.Romney’s campaign. Mr.Romney seems to be a great family man and he seems dedicated to his church in fact his private life seems pristine. That is why his campaign for the presidency perplexes me so. It is a campaign built on a foundation of dishonesty and deceit and gotcha moments.  I do not relish saying these things about the Romney campaign but it is a must. I do not know which candidate will win, I realize that this is a partisan contest that is very close.

Some may dismiss my comments as those of a supporter of president Obama. They will be wrong. We will get the government that we deserve. I am not naive when it comes to the rough and tumble of our political system in fact I quite enjoy it. I appreciated fully the contentiousness of the last presidential debate this is serious folks. There is no time for levity. I will try to explain my concern.

First of all a house built on a faulty foundation will not stand. Mr.Romney has run a campaign based on lies and deceit. The end justifies the means. This fallacy that discounts totally consumers in the business expansion. It is ridiculous to think that business is built from the top down.  I am waiting to see the first building that is built from the top floor down to the foundation. What successful business  does not first and foremost  need consumers to survive and thrive. What business plan eliminates consumers and bases its success on the wealth of owners solely.
