romney's job, it's all about what is happening right here in america. today, the president said, mitt romney is trying to forget how his economic policies benefit the very rich like the owners of this factory. >> he's forgetting what his own positions are. and he's betting that you will, too. i mean, he's changing up so much and back tracking and sidestepping. we've got to -- we've got to name this condition that he's going through. i think -- i think it's called romnesia. that's what it's called. if you come down with a case of romnesia and you can't seem to remember the policies that are still on your website or the promises you made over the six years you've been running for president, here's the good news. obama care covers pre-existing conditions. we can fix you up. we've got a cure. we can make you well, virginia. >> this disease is contagious. vice president joe biden says paul ryan, oh, he's come down with it. >> ryan's saying his budget doesn't decimate medicare and medicaid and eviscerate education. it's a little like mitt romney standing in an unemployment line in florida a

, rachel. the romney campaign has been making a very specific claim about jobs. they say he would create 12 million jobs during his first term. at "the washington post," my colleague asked for the numbers to back that up, and what he got back from them was actually a little hilarious. the romney campaign referenced one study that said a tax plan like mitt romney's could create 7 million jobs. the only problem was that study was looking over ten years, not four, and the study also assumed that romney's tax plan would be fully paid for on the front end and the economy would be at full unemployment, we would be full of jobs, when the tax plan was put into place. that is not likely in a romney first term. the romney campaign also says 3 million of the jobs will be energy remitted. they cited this study from citigroup, but that study covers eight years, not the four romney is promising for his results, and the study wasn't evaluating any of mr. romney's policies at all. it was actually looking at current trends and current policies, which is to say president obama's policies. finally, the romney

. romney has no plan. he said he's going to generate 12 million jobs. conservative economists say, no, it's only 2 million. he says he's got a five-point plan to do this. you look under the hood, there's nothing there. he's going to give $5 trillion -- excuse me, he's going to cut $5 trillion or cut taxes, whatever it is. middle class people are going to pay for that. this is a hocus pocus campaign, al, that's all it is, hocus pocus. the president needs to call him on that and then say what he would do otherwise. what people are looking for in this country is leadership. mitt romney got away with pretending he was the leader the last time. he won't get away with it tonight. >> governor howard dean, thank you for your time tonight. >> thanks a lot, al. >> joining me here in studio is krystal ball and steve kornacki. thank you for joining me tonight. >> thank you, reverend. >> steve, who has the bigger challenge tonight between the president and former governor romney? >> i think it's obama. it clearly is. we have seen a sustained bounce for mitt romney after the first debate. a bigger boun

actually felt a chill when i heard it read when mitt romney said their job, their job could be at risk. there's nothing illegal about that but, of course, it is illegal to tell an employee, you either vote for candidate x or you're fired. that does cross the line. but when you go up to the line and i've talked to lawyers this afternoon about this, when they say, it will be best for your job, our industry, our firm if x wins instead of y, unfortunately that's legal and the coercion dynamics within the workplace are such that to say it's improper is actually way too polite. the power dynamics at play here are, i think, really quite dark and i'll say one further thing. as that slide you showed earlier suggested, you know, workers have actually suffered a lot from the fact that the benefits of growth have aeluded them for decades. >> and i would think that there is a big difference between someone campaigning, a candidate or surrogate saying this will help your jobs and your employers saying that to you. how do you get around the inference, dana, when an employer is talking to his employee

? >> i think it was mitt romney's strongest answer in the entire debate. i think he did a great job as jim nelson pointed out as listing his accomplishments, the jobs, the private sector job growth, he mentioned the war in iraq, the osama bin laden attack. i think he was successful throughout the night, because on every question he pivoted and turned it into an attack on mitt romney, which is something he completely failed to do in the first debate. it was a much more forceful debate for him, for the undecided. ultimately, i don't think there are that many undecided voters. >> well, he was on the attack, no doubt about it, much more aggressive, but larry's point about a lack of plan. >> right. >> how does that play on the independents? >> yeah, i think, again, i don't think the president laid out a real future agenda. and i think that is the problem he has had from day one. the whole campaign is about defense, and i agree with you that he made a good attempt to defend his economic situation. i also agree with sarah, that romney just ripped that apart. but obama came alive. there is

policy. >> romney was on unsure footing for most of the night. he did a good job putting himself in a corner on a major issue and the president didn't have to say a thing. here's romney answering a question on equal pay for women. >> i recognize that if you're going to have women in the workforce, that sometimes you need to be more flexible. my chief of staff, for instance, had two kids who were still in school. she said, i can't be here until 7:00 or 8:00 at night. i need to be able to get home at 5:00 so i can get home making dinner for my kids and be home for them. so i said, fine, let's have a flexible schedule so we can have hours that will work for you. we need to have employers in the new economy, in the economy that i'm going to bring to play, that are going to be so anxious to get good workers, that they're going to be anxious to hire women. >> romney had no answer for fixing pay and equality in america. he wants to hire more women and give them flexible schedules so they can go home and cook dinner. he may have lost the women's vote last night. president obama saved his

campaign. the fact that president reagan did a good job and romney has been on the tv unfiltered by the media with 125 million people watching. something is changing out there. the media can't spin romney talking and standing up and articulating his views. as romney joked thursday night they are doing the best to obscure what he is saying. the reality is punching through and the gatekeepers can't deal with it. >> jon: so what about it? does it suggest the debates are more about style than substance? >> it's television, yes. of course that is through. i was struck by to the extent that people tended to stick to the vie they brought in to the debate. that includes the reporters. the washington and "new york times" said more obama comes back as the lead editorial. the "wall street journal" said, president without a plan. so what you heard is what you wanted to hear from that debate. >> jon: you like president obama. the fact that he did better in this debate. did it cheer you up? >> it certainly cheered me up. i was a little dismayed at some of the press, particularly one that said
