With this one trailing in the polls, Americans will see a new Mitt Romney emerge from the continuing flood of television commercials and, come Oct. 3, in the first of three presidential debates.

As reinvented, Mr. Romney will go into detail on the way he will govern if elected. He will, it is promised, say how he will cut taxes by 20 percent on the wealthy and keep the flow of revenues at present levels. He will continue to promise to produce 12 million new jobs in the next four years, but this time will tell the nation how that can be done, step by step. He will “fix the immigration problem.”

While Romney is on those missions of clarification, his teammate, Paul Ryan, will tell voters how the Romney-Ryan administration will reduce the deficit and the national debt while substantially increasing spending on the military.
