So, I'm listening to Obama in his special thanks to his contributors, (streaming)

and I'm thinking why he doesn't lay it out in just the same terms in his debates, that Romney is trying to ensure that the upper echelons continue to have benefits that others don't have.

He listed examples which he should repeat in a debate. We can deduce for ourselves that it will also ensure that they remain in power.

BTW, if you're going to donate, tonight is the night to do it.

It is looking good but they could use more funds for the ground game they know the Supper PAC money is about to hit, so give now all that you can.

I was shocked that I was included. I don't think I contributed all that much.
