What's shown here that I think is interesting is the fact that in this election we have a choice between two campaigns that other than a few clearly partisan canards that have been around for a long time use some oddly similar rhetoric to characterize themselves and each other.
Thank you for providing an intelligent comment for this discussion.
The rhetoric is pretty similar - what surprised me here was Axelrod suggesting the road we're currently on is not a good one, which I found contrary to Obama's talking points that the economy is improving and we're on the road to recovery. Romney, on the other hand, has argued that the economy is not headed in the right direction. That's the biggest difference between the two in my opinion, which is why I think how the economy turns out from now until November will pretty much decide the election,
