Romney is being treated as if he is the one who's the incumbent... (interview, security)

No the "have nots" want even more tax breaks for the wealthy while they continue to struggle because the "trickle down economics" went to tax havens instead.
Who was it that said you don't raise taxes (even o the wealthy) in a recession?
You know WHY you don't do that?
Because raising taxes on the wealthy depresses the economy.
OBVIOUSLY Obama KNOWS that because he said so.
It doesn't matter if we're in a recession or not....that FACT remains TRUE 7-24-365.

It sure seems to me that the press have been treating Romney as if he's been the one who's been in office. Pouncing on everything he says, being held to the standard of a man who is actually President. Yet at the same time, the same press do not go after the actual President.
They all but ignore the debacle that was the Libya terror attack and how the Admin handled it from day one. They give him a pass for not meeting with world leaders. Essentially, Barack has been doing nothing but campaigning. He is not being held to the standard of President like Romney is. He is not taking heat or tough questions (except from Univision) on his term in office and the many broken promises and failures.
Is there a doubt in anyones mind, that if the press treated Barack as the incumbent, and the man who has indeed been President for the past few years, that he would have zero chance to get elected?
Want some " whine " with that cheese.
Already making excuses for him losing??? Not much faith in your guy
Romney would get more media attention if he actually SAID something of substance. What are his detailed plans for fixing what is broken---and will he change those 'plans' every time he talks in front of a different group? He has a message problem of his own making. He's been running for six years and we STILL don't know who the real Romney is.
As for giving the President "a pass" about Libya and not meeting with world leaders: Grow up. The press knows the FBI and state department are still overseas trying to put things together and that a senate oversight hearing is underway, which is normal after events like this. At this point in time grown ups know to wait until all the facts are uncovered before demanding answers. And not meeting with world leaders: the President spoke in front of ALL of them and he can get any one of them on the phone at any time he wants without letting other world leaders know who he's meeting with. The situation between Iran and Israel is too shaky to risk sound bites coming from individual meetings with their leaders that could escalate hostility further. All you neo-cons would also be yelling your lungs out if he he had met with a bunch of world leaders, you'd be claiming he did it just for the photo-ops in an election year and you know I'm right on that!

Of course you've obviously never gone to Romney's website and READ all the enumerated specific steps he'd take to turn this country around and back to prosperity.
Your individual ignorance is your own fault.
