Let me welcome my -- like -- -- Stephanie Cutter who is.

In one of the top surrogate for President Obama by CSF -- you don't Allen that a long time.

What do you think of the debate -- I'm guessing you think the president and a little better time that he did.

-- enormously pleased you know the president dominated the debate and in a number of different ways one he talked about what we accomplished at the country the last four years in moving this country forward yeah he talked about -- will go over the next four years when he's gonna due to strength in the middle class.

And I think he also exposed Romney.

Ford be sketchy deals -- I did.

-- specificity from around him and I thought it was great I just telling a caller when the president said but when Romney would say five point plan which was the drinking game every time it's -- The president that you go to one point -- -- like planning a specificity in the five point.

And you know it to what he did speak to -- you know his tax cut by trillion dollar tax cut.

That's geared toward the wealthy he still couldn't pay it couldn't say how he is gonna -- -- -- and his jobs plan couldn't exactly say how -- was gonna create jobs.

And it all adds up to this it just adds up to a bunch of sketchy deals he made the president's -- -- tonight if somebody was presenting this to you and the Bain Capital -- round.

Seven trillion dollars of new spending and it.

And no.

Lot of people haven't -- you know the other surrogates and with the red signs are walking around.

Do they ever recent claim victory is going to be their -- -- say they like living -- you want.

No absolutely not Mitt Romney couldn't defend.

One piece of his policy when asked what he did in Massachusetts to advance women.

Ollie could say was hit a binder full of woman he still couldn't say whether or not unilaterally Ledbetter act that veteran -- and the indictment -- still won't say whether or not -- -- -- that.

He was dishonest about contraception.

And whether or not he would.

Put -- is in charge of female employees access to contraception and their insurance you -- -- he's absolutely for that so called blunt amendment but he was dishonest about it tonight.

Though I think at every turn Mitt Romney was exposed the more he got exposed the more Mitt Romney got compelling I have.

Of course there's an Obama supporter and someone who is up for years you know for a long time -- -- -- Romney flip flops and everything.

But I wonder if that to the independents if you need to reach the people in the ninth swing states -- -- -- dependent on which are considering -- that.

We'll let mr.

gotten across -- that there's -- five -- -- Alan I don't think he's flip flopping I think he's trying to hide his real plans there's a reason why he's trying to muddy the waters -- the five trillion dollar tax cut because they know that doesn't add up.

And he doesn't know wants independent voters to know that ultimately it could mean an increase in taxes for middle class voters so we haven't changed his mind he just wants to kick it past the election and pull one over you think he really knows exactly what he's absolutely.

Evidently we've been running for president for six years not one time in the last six years has he stood up.

To the most extreme elements of his party.

Defund Planned Parenthood put -- in charge of contraception.

Tax cuts for those at the top paid for by the middle class taking us back to the very same policies.

That pressure economy and punish them the middle class even the president -- tonight you know what you're not like George Bush you're even -- more extreme than George -- That 62 -- -- it was her moment tonight when you felt was a key moment for President Obama we kind of disabuse people of what -- -- they thought after the last of it was their key moment.

You know I think there're a number of different moments I think the president -- particularly strong.

One in talking about Mitt Romney in the 47%.

But to talking about how he believes we need to grow this economy the importance of the free enterprise system and that's all working together.

Government and the private sector to grow our economy make the investments that we need in exposing Romney four you know his 47% comment.

-- to secure about half the country.

Stephanie great to see anything -- -- -- -- appreciate it very much Stephanie -- deputy campaign manager for the Obama campaign.
