Amanda Carpenter (@amandacarpenter) October 04, 2012President Obama knows that he can’t unsay what he said as a candidate in 2008: that driving up the national debt is “unpatriotic.” There was the attempted reboot recently with the Orwellian call for a “new economic patriotism.” But Mitt Romney seems to have raised the stakes in Wednesday night’s debate by calling the now $16 trillion national debt a “moral issue.”
It's a MORAL ISSUE–YES—

Next topic, deficit/debt. @MittRomney talks about it as an economic issue and a moral issue (he should throw in national security issue).—
