The Obama campaign may have released only the most anodyne phrases from his acceptance speech, as the Romney campaign did last week–trying to lowball expectations. We’re told he’ll set out specific goals. But some of those listed look vague or incapable of being accomplished.

Example: On national security the one item in the release reads: “Invest in the economy with the money we’re no longer spending on war.”

Well, that explains it all.
