Barack Obama-Mitt Romney: Crucial Moment

Obama Dept: Several reasons have been proffered for Obama s failure at such a crucial moment, despite his brilliance, command of detail and personal integrity and discipline, according to The Star. Or that Obama is just fed up with the Republicans extreme partisanship, their brazen distortions of his record and their own flip-flopping on key domestic and foreign issues and americans have one of the lowest participation rates in elections only about 50 per cent in the presidential race. Yet they are very much engaged in politics. They do tune into their leaders televised debates 68 million for the first Barack Obama-Mitt Romney encounter, 65.6 million for the second, and 59.2 million for the third. If Obama loses the election, it may be because he was listless in the first encounter and barely there in the third, thereby allowing his weak and vacillating opponent to catch up to him in the polls within days. It s said that he does not relate to ordinary Americans, the way Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan did. That he is an elite intellectual who does not enjoy getting down and dirty with opponents. That he got thrown off in the first debate by Romney s aggression probably no one has talked to him like this since his election in 2008, said CNN s David Gergen, former adviser to four presidents.
