Unfortunately, both their plans are based on incomplete data and bad science, and neither one has much chance of succeeding.
One plan calls for walking "Forward" off a cliff and the other plan calls for walking along a well-traveled yet icy and foggy road. Both are potentially dangerous... So which should we implement?
History tells us that walking off cliffs has proven disasterous in the past, but some cliffs are only a few feet high and sometimes there's water or snow at the bottom to catch our fall. Hmm..
Walking along the road is what got us to where we are now. Sure it's not a great place and it's dangerous and icy, but we're probably not going to die...
I guess since both plans are flawed they each have equal chance of 'succeeding'?
What is there in it for President Obama to do that? Why do you all keep harping this? I don't know of anyone that wants our economy destroyed. Just a campaign tactic by the GOP?
Isn't it in line with the other campaign saying Romney will destroy the economy?? Lets be honest now. We hear this rhetoric from BOTH sides..
Romney may want to do that, but improving our economy will be his first business, since we need a growing economy to grow anything else.
HOW is he going to that? He hasn't given any details at all.
I want to improve the economy too! In fact I think you'd be hard pressed to find a single person who doesn't. But the HOW is much harder, especially when we're dealing with a world wide economic situation, one country is not going to pull it out of the crapper, even the US, and especially not the way we are right now.
Isn't it in line with the other campaign saying Romney will destroy the economy??
I don't think even Romney wants to destroy the economy... but he will do so if for nothing but to further "Starve the Beast" mantra right wingers have subscribed to for a while. Any opportunity to do so, is an opportunity to gain ground, with a lot of support from self-defeating idiots, of course.

Democrats and Republicans have been in charge since before 1861.
I'd say thats a pretty long regime.
Oh, well, you define it differently, more differently than I do.
When someone says regime, I automatically think of dictators like Assad, Mubarik, Saddam Hussein, and few others who kill/killed their own people for just the mere voicing of an opinion.
If I'm not mistaken, I think America is still a democracy, but might find some hard righties who disagree fervently about that.
If ya think we live in a regime, maybe you should consider a move to france, canada, australia, sweden, or some regime free country of your choice? That is, if you consider the D and R parties regimes, what else would an independent be? another regime. yes?
Actually it might be a bit ignorant, since the disaster of the last four years was not just bad, but historically bad. You cannot compare the reality of the failure of 0bama, and say Romney might be just as bad. Because speaking from a historical aspect, it's almost statistically impossible.
No its just stating a fact that both people are not in this to ruin the economy and nation they just have different ideas. Now personally I like Romney's economic plan better and will vote for him but it was a hard choice and I happen to like both candidates.
