^ I get that, and the point that he didn't want to give incorrect numbers that would be used against him makes sense... But his answer didn't sit very well with me - maybe it was the tone. It seemed like he didn't know whether he had promised three billion or fifteen, and he didn't care.
One concern I have with an economic plan based on deficit spending is that there will be urgency to spend that money, whether it makes sense or not. Hopefully if they get in, there will not be a push to spend money without first determining that it will be spent effectively.
