As the Main Stream Media (MSM) goes after the Romney-Ryan GOP ticket in the final 2 months of the Presidential campaign - some challenging questions are being asked. If you search www.youtube.com for Paul Ryan speeches, you'll find a fresh approach to answering questions from the media. Mr. Ryan actually answers questions. This compares to the Obama approach of dodge the question, change the subject and then blame others for the present problems. Thus week the question "du jour" has been the famous line from the presidential debate between "one-term President Jimmy Carter" and the challenger, Governor Ronald Reagan: "Are you better off now than four years ago?". The Governor of Maryland said "No" earlier this week, until the Democrat party operatives called and told him to "change the answer", which he has dutifully been trying to do since giving his original honest answer. But the bet answer was from President Obama, who was asked in Colorado Springs to grade his performance with the US economy and responded "incomplete". Really?
Here is how Paul Ryan responded to the tough round of questions from the CBS news team (who are in Charlotte, NC at the Democrat convention).

Only an academic or silver tongued lawyer would answer the "Are you better off" question as Barak Obama did: "incomplete". So he dodged the question, attempted to change the subject, and then (as he has been prone to do) blamed others for the poor economy.
The transcript of Obama's "incomplete" grade that he gave himself on the economy:
Dianne Derby: Your party says you inherited a bad situation. You've had three and a half years to fix it. What grade would you give yourself so far for doing that?
President Obama: You know I would say incomplete...but what I would say is the steps that we have taken in saving the auto industry, in making sure that college is more affordable andinvesting in clean energy and science and technology and research, those are all the things that we are going to need to grow over the long term.
So after 3 1/2 years on the job, and the Presidents's policies are not working, he gives himself a grade of "incomplete"? Looks like it is time to elect a new President!
