What is the difference between the Bowles-Simpson plan for deficit reduction vs President Obama’s plan? Ever wondered? I have. It seems the President’s plan calls for less cuts in Defense and Social Security but has more cuts in annual domestic spending. An Obama for America document summarizes the differences and of course does a comparison with the Romney plan. Romney’s plan is short on details so there is a lot of extrapolation. Is there an equivalent document put out by the Romney campaign?

how about this alternative question: does it really matter in the larger scheme of things whether obama or romney is elected?

This is far more specific and less biased:
Anyone who has followed plan proposal, projections and comparison against actuals for any decent period of time knows that this is a completely pointless exercise. It’s at most (and not even) a comparison among policy goals, not policy means.
