I can’t tell exactly how the Obama campaign reached that characterization of my work. It might be that they assume that Governor Romney wants to keep the taxes from the Affordable Care Act in place, despite the fact that the Governor has called for its complete repeal. The main conclusion of my study is that under plausible assumptions, a proposal along the lines suggested by Governor Romney can both be revenue neutral and keep the net tax burden on taxpayers with incomes above $200,000 about the same. That is, an increase in the tax burden on lower and middle income individuals is not required in order to make the overall plan revenue neutral.

The next debate will be easier on Obama, as it will be a "town hall" style meeting with planted Obama supporters. They will ask him about his favorite color and animal- he should be able to handle that. He can also make up outrageous lies in that format without consequence. Look for some additional whoppers there. The foriegn policy debate will be a little tougher, as he will not be able to lie as much.
I think the answer to your question is this: Personality disorders and Character flaws.
There is a certain bullying segment of society who thinks America owes them something. 0bama is one of their type. A Chicago street thug and 'organizer'. No matter what, those people will defend him. They aren't smart enough not to.
Anyone who didn't know this would happen when 0bama got elected wasn't putting things in perspective. It's the reparations thing.
