The Really: Both candidates have a plan to restore the failing economy.
Like Lennie, the idiot in Of Mice and Men, the American public is still dreaming of "living off the fat of the land" and "taking care of the rabbits." Tell us about the rabbits Barack! Tell us about the rabbits John! We stand waiting for our new "George" to tell us how it will be; while in reality we travel from farm to farm eeking out an existence. The candidate who can provide a concrete plan will have a tremendous edge with American voters. More regulation or less regulation arguments are a poor substitute for what most Americans are eager to see. Or perhaps this is the best the brain and brawn of Wall Street and Washington can do. Like the characters Lennie and George we are largely at the mercy of fate.
Today in Green Bay, Obama did make some concrete proposals including a promise to cut spending especially of government contractors. It's a start.
