that "turn around" has been a familiar refrain* for generations. This^ issue has been the standard rhetoric^^ bearer for every administration: the debt is a problem only when running.

As it so happens...
I only saw part of the townhall style debate, and heard part of it, and missed part of it. But from what I did get, it seems that the President had the upper hand, and the Governor*** the upper fACE. OK, I could only do this so straight, without a Bane or Tan Gent.**
** hmmm
10-17-12***(Second debate link): I just did not want to characterize the in"f"able expression(a smile, I guess), the Governor often has.

^^ Not running well local.
Economics: local / global ^^^
Globalization is not as daunting as the haunting of the illusion of democracy and economics.(note: exception to b.s.)

The other ground game...
<*>
I am for some reason unable to put my usual* into this lately.
Not to quote Martha Stewart but it might be a good thing, or I just have other things.
I have two submissions saved in draft:
IMHO ^
Turn Around(F'N 3.0)
Time Stamp: 8:19 10-9-12
* Don't you mean refreshingly in accord with "your perception" of reality? OUCH. I did not mean to hit so close to the bone of reality or nuance, just making a preemptive comment based on a reading of the first few sentences, where the logic seems... interestingly framed to say the least. And while I might read more, I might not have more to say. It just seems to fit a playbook of sorts that may or not be written but is my "perception" of familiar tactics. BTW: Sorry "F" "bailed"^^^ so-to-speak,but I will not feel the need to fill his loss.
OCCUPY FACT-CHECKERS**
Yeah... that's the ticket.***
** well... the anachronism of my asterisks is my usual (as well as links inserted)
*** To the Obama campaign: an unembedding of diplomacy and humor, stay the course (Ctrl "F" 'n zingers.) Far be it from me^^ to tell people not to be them, but I don't think Joe Biden will go overboard with humor, I think he will be taking things serious. Make it about congress, and bi-partisanship, and the dynamics of cooperation and compromise, without being too patronizing. Substance seems to be the football that the Republicans Lucy to our Charlie Brown.

Replacement Refs or Not...
If it were a debate* we would have stopped it.
Not to pun on Xfinity, but while the Comcast links*** will expire.**,
it's the congress John! Bring it on, Joe! The President needs to hold a Sit Down.
Before I get down to the task of preserving<*> those links whether read or not, I will explain the Rogue John and Wax Leak of the asterisks. Although the lesson learned from "Simon says"^^ might be to actually read links more thoroughly, the lesson from the Debate may be more complex but parallel of sorts. By "rogue",<*> I mean that former Presidential Candidate McCain(first link) confesses an expectation for him lowering the expectations of Paul Ryan, while disrespecting the Vice President and framing an expectation for gaffs. Then in regard to the " ball of wax " that Palin leaks, it connects the "boys" to the other "race" speech.^^^ (There, that's the GPS-uncross-Rhodes.)
And a far as my Tan Gents(Dr. Trumps), being a Seahawk fan has nothing to do with my take on the moderator. Well, who knows? But Mr. Lerrer has been critcized for not moderating or having a good performance, but I think that given the style over substance versus substance with style, these are not legitimate debates. And within the political system (such as it is) it was not his job to interfere with the players being themselves in order to let them make the proper contrast. Again having only heard most of the debate on the radio, I thought that the President walked away with it, but that was under the condition that facts matter. Neither he nor Lehrer could have done a better job in the case that they don't.
BTW^: Speaking of "boys", we have heard cracks about the Harvard "professor" and I suspect he has had to deal with a few wise-guys or gulls[!]
*if the link were fact checked...ditto.
(McCain goes rogue.)(Palin leaks ball of wax .)
** not that I have read them yet or the recommend them.
***The point of this lede and the heading...
^ apologies to literary geeks for my style over elements.(But that was Core Knell.)
^^ added in edit mode
^^^ to be expanded later(but see lede and stupid...I mean congress and John, Joe & Ryan. i.e. the context of the politics of "relief' legislation.)
[In the spirit of medium...? ]
[Not to parse too acutely, but it is the medium and the mess age.]

First Debate: Zinger Score 2 to -1
Although I did not take an official scoring of the First Debate (Transcript) , two zingers the President came up with regarded Trump and SNL. For Romney it was his "five boys" under the bus or at the President's lies. "Never mind".
OK, so it really wasn't a debate for zingers. I happen to have heard the debate on the radio**, with only a few interruptions and don't wish to give them a grade, but only remind that it was only first of three, and try to find a commentary(Thom Hartmann?) that what matters is the post-debate spin. Not that I will follow-up on the links here, but will suggest that Obama* will probably ramp up his urgency but remain steady in the next debates.
* Is it too late to score the Big Bird as a zinger?
[Re:FLASHNOTE (*there)]
**10-5-12 If it were a debate they would have stopped it[!].
