I had a little bit of fun yesterday with my Tweeps.  I started tweeting one-liners that Romney might use during the debate tonight.  Some of them I pulled out of my own .. er … mind, and some of them were inspired by my Twitter followers.   We’re hoping that Romney has grown a set by debate time this evening, but in the event he hasn’t, perhaps a recap of some of the ideas I had yesterday might be helpful.  So … TA DA!  …  Just in case a Romney staffer happens upon Nealz Nuze (yeah, right), here are a few lines I’ve come up with for tonight’s debate with Barack Obama.

What Romney should tell America …

"As president I would work to lower the number of poor Americans, not rich ones."

"If terrorists attack and kill, I will stay in Washington and do my job. I won't run to Las Vegas to party with Beyonce."

“A president must be honest with the people at all times, but especially when America is under attack.  Americans can handle the truth.  We need a president who can as well.”

“Actually, the president and I have much in common. I've never written an article for the Harvard Law Review either."

“Democrats think it’s bad to outsource a call center for consumer inquiries.  I think it’s bad to out source security for our diplomats abroad.”

“Even though my father was born in Mexico ... I never applied to attend college in the U.S. as a foreign student."

"I might not have a compelling personality, but at least the people who went to college with me remember me."

"Excuse me, but do you really want to take credit for that statement? Or shall we blame your teleprompter?"

"Vote with neither your lady parts nor your man parts. Vote with your brain parts. Your children deserve that."

"As president I will respect the rule of law, not the waiver of rules."

"It's more important that the garbage men know recognize the blessings of liberty than that you recognize your garbage man."

"As president I would seek to restore the greatness of America, not to transform it into something we don't recognize."

"Never in my life have I EVER referred to the private sector as "the enemy."

".... and if you wish to cling to your Religion, more power to you."

"I have not sought, nor would I accept the endorsement of Hugo Chavez."

"I know I'm somewhat old fashioned. Old fashioned enough to believe that even presidents should follow the law."

"If I have an off mic comment for a Russian leader .. it will be to convey our strength, not my weakness."

"As President, I will not use taxpayer's money to bribe companies into breaking laws I approved of and voted for."

"If I had a son he would look like Richard, the LaJolla garbage man."

“I have yet to master the ability to change my accent to suit the people I’m talking to.”
