While the general consensus seems to be that President Obama turned in a rather lackluster performance last night; he is hitting the campaign trail today with an arsenal of zingers aimed at Mitt Romney.
One of the best ones, was in regards to Romney’s flip-flops on taxes.
“When I got on to the stage I met this very spirited fellow who claimed to be Mitt Romney. But it couldn’t have been Mitt Romney, because the real Mitt Romney has been running around the country for the last year, promising $5 trillion in tax cuts that favor the wealthy. The fellow on stage last night said he didn’t know anything about that.”
He went on to make a serious point in regards to Romney’s threat to cut funding to PBS.
“He’ll get rid of regulations on Wall Street but he’s going to crack down on Sesame Street! Thank goodness somebody’s finally cracking down on Big Bird! Who knew he was responsible for all these deficits. Elmo’s gotta watch out!”
