 Virtually everything he just said about my tax plan is inaccurate. But Obama recovered in the next two debates. Ronald Reagan had a terrible first debate in 1984 against Walter Mondale, and there were a lot of questions about his age in that debate performance. Two weeks later, he famously rallied in the second one and came up with a great zinger. I am not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience.
