Romney hit a grand slam.

Currently, on the CBC, Obama 68% to Romney 29%. Given the left leaning of most Canadians, Romney must be killing Obama.
I think Obama has improved from the first debate, but Romney had a nice zinger on the president's failed promise and is now bringing up fast and furious
Not sure there was a clear winner.
Romney was good and Obama was much better than the last debate....
However I would GUESS that this was better for Romney with respect to TRUE undecideds and trends perhaps.
I can't help but wonder if the press will make Romney calling out the president on Libya the biggest deal, call it an insult, and shift focus from the real issues....

Crowley said her job was to make sure the candidates answered the questions. I don't recall her making Obama answer the question of who rejected extra security. I was stunned that he was able to avoid answering that. It's like, you know, kind of an important question.
Every stat I ve seen has Obama winning the debate last night, even the poll on fox news insider had Obama winning the debate last night.

Actually the poll on fox insider had obama 70% and Romney 30%, which i thought was really lopsided but its pretty close to the CBC.
In my opinion, with the moderators help, the exchange on Libya decided the debate.

Romney, a successful businessman who makes $20 million per year and turns everything he touches to gold is in over his head....and Obama who is community organizer and a complete failure as potus who as arguably ruined this country beyond the point of fixing is not.
Talk about delusional.....lol.

I would care more for Romney if he challenged Obama on actual issues. Arguing over who said what after the attack on the embassy is a trivial issue. Obama signed a bill (NDAA) that allows the government to detain US citizens indefinitely without a warrant. But does Romney slam him on this blatant breach of constitutional liberty? -No, which leads me to believe that Romney is full of the same b***shit.
If voting for a libertarian or shining your putter on election day makes you feel better about another 4 years of Obama. Good for you.

My questions is "where is suitanism"? I'd like to get his opinion on how this went for Romney.

Obama looked angry and nervous at the beginning. His best strategy was to avoid answering any direct questions, especially concerning his record. Obama did fabricate that employers were actively seeking out people to employ.
I thought Romney was more polished and much more qualified to run anything, including the USA. If Romney wins, buy US growth stocks. If Obama wins you might be living in a cardboard box. I don't see how anybody except the extreme poor would vote for the President.

He emailed me yesterday saying he's been permanently banned, so you won't see him anymore (unfortunately).
As far as the debate, I see it as a draw. There's no question Obama did better this go around. The mod taking his side on the Benghazi issue was absolutely out of line, and a falsehood to boot. Most lob news stations have Obama winning the debate, most likely because he improved so much since the last one. This race will remain very close until the end.
Maybe I.missed something but i didnt see the pot boiling over this time. Its unfortunate though because he contributed a lot to this place. No one is going to agree with him all or some of the time but his post were thought out and educated. I suspect 1 or 2 members probably blowing up the admin mailboxes anytime their feelings or ego got a little hurt. We've lost a lot of good people around here in the past year or so...

Banned ?? Was it PEDS's ??
If anyone hears from him , tell him hi for me .
Can't personally attack people on a regular occasion and expect to stick around.
Anywho, I think it was about equal, although Obama DID avoid some key questions.
I give Romney the edge given that he was outnumbered and provided a scorching indictment on Obama's record
Ok I watched the debate and both did well. I would say that Romney had the edge and won the debate. Obama was on defense the entire night. So much so that he never told us what he intends to do in the next four years. So far all we can expect from him is to continue with what he has done for the past four, which hasn't worked. Nobody is right all of the time but if it's not working, then what is he going to do different to fix it? We didn't hear any of that last night. He never told us how he plans to get our spending or deficit under control.
A couple times Obama finished strong. It's hard to follow up "I see the caskets and I know the families." but Mitt was always able to push back and Obama couldn't/wouldn't answer the question. Instead answered "please proceed Governer. PLEASE PROCEED GOVERNER!" Well done by MR IMO.
I also think obama tried too hard to control the spotlight and be the people person but instead came off as arrogant and trying too hard.

i just checked it its shifted 66 obama 33 romney its right there its just a poll on the website, i just thought it was funny that it has obama winning by so much and its on fox insider.
I thought it was a childish display of 5 year olds calling each other "poopy butt" the whole evening. What a pathetic display of immaturity on both parts. I'm supposed to cast a vote for one of them, yet neither can act the part of someone I'd like to see run the country. I'm tempted to sit this one out for the first time ever.
Why the hell can't a decent moderator be found to run these things in a professional manner? Isn't there anyone available to run this circus in a professional, non partisan manner? The whole thing is just so mind numbingly pitiful.
