Romney-Obama Debate Thread

[Toro]

Thought Romney did pretty well. But was it enough? Romney needs something to shift the tide. I don't think it was. Obama did well and made no mistakes. So I'd say Obama won.

There are two more debates.

Yup. Two more chances.

notice how obama blinks and stutters when he lies

romney is a much better liar

so YOU admit obama is a liar....cool

are you this stupid in real life?

 

[Bigfoot]

Obama is so arrogant be doesn't see how bad he was......

Yeah, that is very likely.

First Debate.....I have to give to Romney

I didn't see the promised zingers from either side

Good job by Romney, but far from the home run that he needed

I know ya dont care, but I agree.

first impression... I was actually very pleased there were no interruptions from the crowd. They were almost completely silent during the debate, which is exactly what they should be, out of respect for both candidates and the moderator trying to maintain the flow.

Long debate, but a good one.

In a short phrase: "Lame duck!"

 

[rightwinger]

Obama seemed to lack passion. Romney was well prepped and sold himself well

Romney should see a boost from the debate.....but I doubt if it is enough

 

[hazlnut]

They agree so much...

Why do we need to have this election?

Romney's performance was good. If you take the time to listen to most of the stump speeches, you would know that he simply re-phrased his and delivered it well.

Obama went off of his stump speech quite a bit. I think he was impressed with Romney's ability to get his message out.

Obama came in with a lead. I'm guessing Romney probably helped himself with those who are just now starting to pay attention. He did what he set out to do.

Are you feeling alright?

Why do you ask?

Prevent defense prevents you from winning.

You can't balance the budget without raising taxes.

Can't do it.

Vouchers....Romney just came out for Education vouchers....did he initiate that in Massachusetts, which as he stated, has the best education system in the country?

no. no vouchers here, and romney had little to nothing to do with education reform here. that was weld's baby.

in fact, the only things he really did as governor were raise taxes (fees), sign romneycare into law and run for president.

I agree... Romney took this one. I wonder what happened to all the zingers we were told Romney has been practicing? I guess he was too bust with substance.

While I agree this was not a home run for Romney, I'd say it was a triple.

Obama's going to kick major Romney ass tonight!

9.15pm and that's what's happening because mitt still doesn't much in the way of hard facts.

Pick one and stick with it eh..

 

[KissMy]

Romney's performance was great. He was more specific, detailed & confident than he has been in his stump speeches.

Obama was not as smooth or confident but had more detailed facts than Romney who just said he would sit down with Congress & work those details out.

Turn to MSNBC 's coverage of the debate, shaptons is about to blow a gasket....lmafo

 

[earlycuyler]

Obama should have had a better debate practice guy then John Kerry. Obama got his ass handed to him.
