handled. debate someone who isn t interesting in civility or facts? did you have someone specific in mind? what i believe is that whatever else is going on, the noise and the nonsense and the wind and the craziness, we got to stay focussed on what matters to us. reporter: as senator warren has been taking questions at all these events from voters, obviously it seems that electability is a concern. we had one event where the first question was about the dna test she released last fall. she was trying to address these questions about her ancestry. what will be interesting is this is the first of what we expect to be many trips for senator
say anything on a given day to get through the day, and he has to be unmasked that way. well, that s what i would do, michelle. the facts are that romney believes basically that the status quo on health care before president obama came along is fine with him, 40 million people sitting in emergency rooms for most of the day to get some kind of basic care. he does say things like i want the auto industry to go bankrupt. he does say or his party does and he supports them, let s not have a law that says you have to get equal pay for equal work if you re a woman. these seem to be pretty fundamental positions he s taken and yet in the debate because his family apparently told him to go softer he was able to mask them. and i feel for obama because as lackluster as his performance was, it s really hard to debate someone who is willing to make things up and kind of pull facts out of thin air. i m not sure it s necessarily his job to refute all of this whose job is it? his campaign s
medicare issue as such. it s about revealing the fact that romney has been all over the map on various issues, will say anything on a given day to get through the day, and he has to be unmasked that way. well, that s what i would do, michelle. the facts are that romney believes basically that the status quo on health care before president obama came along is fine with him, 40 million people sitting in emergency rooms for most of the day to get some kind of basic care. he does say things like i want the auto industry to go bankrupt. he does say or his party does and he supports them, let s not have a law that says you have to get equal pay for equal work if you re a woman. these seem to be pretty fundamental positions he s taken and yet in the debate because his family apparently told him to go softer he was able to mask them. and i feel for obama because as lackluster as his performance was, it s really hard to debate someone who is willing to make things up and kind of pull fact
was, it s really hard to debate someone who is willing to make things up and kind of pull facts out of thin air. i m not sure it s necessarily at this point his job to refute all of this whose job is it? his campaign s and the super pacs. i don t understand why there s not an ad on tv that uses that old quote of his about how inequality should only be spoken about in private rooms and then says, well, look at what romney says in private rooms. here is what he says in the debate, which is the real romney? do you think moderators should play that role? i don t want to knock jim lehrer, he s a distinguished journalist, but i have seen people like the late tim russert and people like bob schieffer, whenever they hear a complete nonsense statement from a politician on the sunday shows, they tend to go, now, just a minute. are you saying you can t believe that. that sort of general, ron, skepticism. you first, michelle. isn t it in order to say when a guy is flipping for an hour
and gingrich launched an attack against romney. you can t debate someone who is dishonest. you just can t. the people say i m a good debater. i can t debate someone who won t tell the truth. the truth is on the issue of lying, they are both right because they both told lies throughout this campaign. but their most egregious lies haven t focused on each other. they have been aimed at the president. case in point, mitt romney said this about the president s overall management of the american navy. under this president and prior presidents, we keep shrinking the navy. the president is building nine ships a year. we ought to raise that to 15 ships a year. no. in fact, the nation is building 11 ships a year for the next five years and is moving ahead with a new generation of strategic ballistic submarines.
