Obama says Romney’s a better debater

President Obama says Mitt Romney is a “good debater” while he describes himself as “just ok.” ‘The president told an audience in Las Vegas that he hopes for a serious discussion on the economy and help for the middle class.



Under Questioning

Mitt and Barack
Have an upcoming date
To take center stage
And launch into debate.

Some say it’s time,
With tacks that are brass,
To talk about help
For the great middle class.

For the outcome, the voters
Must wait until later;
But Barack says that Mitt’s
A much better debater.

The media’s focus
From down on the floor
Will be centered on whom
Will have the best score.

But folks who must choose
Amid all the suspense
Just hope the debaters
Will make common sense.
