If Bush wanted to attack Iraq, why did he frame guys from Afghanistan for 9/11?
You're asking the wrong questions!
lol
If Obama wins IA and OH, then election night will be a short one.
He didn't get trounced at all.
Those are wild polls. We Ask America had Obama by 7.4 in Ohio in August. So they're saying there was a 9 point swing in the last two months towards Romney in Ohio, and a five point swing in both Virginia and Florida in the last three weeks? I mean, anything is possible, but, uh, I hope they're an outlier.
Agreed. He was passive, but his performance was a far cry from Bush's first 2004 debate performance.

Yeah, like using his built-in wi-fi to receive his zingers from his campaign?
Also, PhoenixDark, please report in if you are alive, PhoenixDark. Dude's probably in tears right now.
It's still such a shame, if Obama had won the debate these job numbers would have put Romney away for good. There'd have been no hope anymore for him. But Obama looks back on track now.
Maybe it's for the best, now the GOP will still waste money on Romney instead of diverting the money and resources to the House and Senate races.

Ouch Ouch Ouch new Polls
It's entirely possible that we'll know who won the election by 8 pm on election day. If Ohio and Virginia are called one way or another when the polls close, as opposed to being too close to call, the election will already be over.
Who is "We Ask America"?

Yes he did. Obama was practically an observer. The biggest takeaways from the debate are passive Obama, commanding Mitt and Sesame Street. Obama set not one narrative.
YES! Please continue this. Stupid Intrade is having issues with money transfers today (out of all days).

This "did you cheat Mitt? " news may have legs . Its all over Dailybeast already . but msnbc has not said one thing about it yet.
The cheating angle isn't really worth running with. Unless there's something really completely undeniably obvious, it would just come off as sour grapes, and aside from that would remind people of Obama's performance in the debate.
Best to just cut your losses and move forward.
Two right-leaning polling firms have the race as being close! SHOCKER!
Seriously, calm down.
It depends on how it is brought up. The smart thing for the dems is not to talk about it or say they know nothing. If the media runs with this on their own, without Obama's help, then it could be something funny.

Way ahead of you
There is no way Romney cheated. Romney is a smart guy - far too smart to take a stupid, unnecessary risk like that.
Luckily all those polls were conducted Thursday night after the debate. That's probably the worst.

Romney pulling paper out of his pocket... Wow
Seems like a really stupid thing to do, even if they were just clean napkins

about to say the same thing. Maybe they do unskewed polls.

His campaign surrogate just admitted on LIVE TELEVISION that Romney is changing positions to win votes.

Yup. Unless there's an HD feed or photo that clearly shows what he pulled out Dems should just move on.
It's like they want to throw away all the goodwill from the debate...

Lol CNN showing two videos of Ronemy flip flopping on coal for job creation
I find it amazing how the media is defending Romney flip flopping but nailed Kerry to the wall for his supposed flip flopping.

If it already wasn't apparent beforehand, it is now. Obama is basically guaranteed to win the election. The only chance Republicans had outside of fielding a legitimately good candidate (and that sure as hell ain't Romney), was to utilize a lethargic economy to carve out a decent campaign. But with Obama now basically being able to say that after inheriting a mess from Republicans that ballooned the unemployment rate as high as 10% due to their failed policies, he was able to bring it back down to a four year low.
Obama already has the incumbent edge, electoral map advantage, is infinitely more likable and relatable to the American people, and he sure as hell can't be touched on foreign affairs, especially now that the Democrat's "softball" attitude towards Iran is actually resulting in the economic disassembling of their country.
Unless that little girl from Here Comes Honey Boo Boo goes missing, and turns up buried under the armoire in Obama's study, then he's pretty much guaranteed to be reelected.

I was going to ask if CS was okay, then I saw that post, which means he's not okay.
CS, calm down. Everything's fine.
You know, if Obama opens the second debate with a powerful line that wins people over, and the economy continues to improve in the last two months, he will have completed his transformation into Democrat Reagan.
