What Romney Needs To Do In This Debate

. . . is to articulate EVERYTHING he has FAILED to communicate SO FAR, and, to REVERSE the positions that have already ALIENATED so many voters to the point where he's LOSING this election.

Quite a tall order -- ridiculously absurd flipping and flopping required.

Still, if Romney actually manages to meet these challenges that he's, so far, shown absolutely no sign of evolving himself to achieve, his cheerleading, opportunistic media pundits and henchfolks say they're ready to declare him the leader in this election. They'd have us forget what a miserable, prevaricating FAILURE he's made of his four year-old presidential bid, with only five weeks remaining until we vote.

As far as these select media frauds are concerned, Romney's just a few ZINGERS away from the presidency. How utterly inspiring.

He needs to promise the following:

Increase funding for the National Endowment for the Arts.
Kill Osama Bin Laden.
Withdraw all combat troops from Iraq.
Establish a commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform.
Pass the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act.
Support the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Sign the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
Pass the Affordable Care Act.
Lead the effort to phase out whaling.
Take steps to insure addition of private sector jobs for 30 months in a row.
Expand Pell grants for low income students.
Help rebuild schools in New Orleans.
Pass the Jobs for Main Street Act
Pass the American Jobs and Closing Tax Loopholes Act of 2010.
Invest $2 billion in solar power.

There's more, but that's a start, anyway; should win him the debates and the election.
