Look, I realize that this election will be primarily about the economy,as it should be since it effects all Americans. And maybe some of the other issues brought up have been diversions.
But if offends me when Romney refuses to talk about anything other than the economy, brushing off issues like the legalization of marijuana and gay marriage as unimportant, as he did with a reporter yesterday. These things are important issues to many Americans and he won't win them over by refusing to talk about them.
Mitt knows that he does better when he talks about the economy, yet looks completely out of touch when he's asked to elaborate on his conservative views on other things. It's clearly a campaign strategy, but one that isn't fooling anybody.
Obama and Romney both know what their strengths and weaknesses are. The only difference is that Obama, in fact, is willing to talk about all issues, including the economy, with the voters. Obama knows that as a candidate he needs to be held accountable for his entire record on all issues, and that's something Romney just doesn't get.
+1000.
