Great debate for both, but Obama took it home.

It was good for Romney in the sense that he claimed Economy is bad, debts are high and gas prices are high. People already know we had a rough ride. I mean, tell us something we don't know. But what are YOU going to solve those problems? The intelligent, real undecideds look for this. Not the fake ass "still undecideds". They're just ashamed republicans.

 

[norinrad]

One of my friends just said the 47% video was fake and Romney will lead America to salvation.

It's unfortunate that they do not realize how the policies of RR would virtually mess up their future. f***king idiots

 

[Dude Abides]

Finally finished. Romney got worked. Clear victory for O.

what's the margin of error on that

~12%

 

[Magni]

Don't live fact check a debate. Ever. When you live in the south. I did a dumb, dumb thing.

What? Are you the NC teacher or am I confusing you with someone else?

Another great part of the debate? Kosmos' alt getting caught and banned.

Great debate for both, but Obama took it home.

It wasn't great for both. If Romney killed it on Libya (should have brought up prior attacks on Benghazi's consulate within the prior month, repeated requests for more security, hell even reports that Obama hadn't been meeting with his Security Council) but he tried to make this stupid point about the semantics of what Obama said. He could have even just harped on the video being the culprit throughout the UN speech and so on, but instead he focused on a false and unimportant aspect. He got owned on the ONE point everyone notched in his category before the debate even started...

 

[StickSoldier]

If Romney wins after this debate, I'm leaving this country.

 

[slightconfuse]

this guy on fox news just said to not have audience participation in a town hall debate

 

[PhoenixDark]

Romney is a good debater but clearly was not prepared to handle Obama, who seemed like 08 Obama; that debate was almost exactly like the 2008 town hall where Obama manhandled McCain. Still, I think I could have beaten Obama tonight

One thing I didn't like: I thought Obama dropped the ball on asking Romney some specific questions. Sure he directly engaged Romney on many things, questioning him. But I felt he could have directly asked Romney if he supported the Lily Ledbetter Act now, and whether he still supported the Blunt Act concerning contraception (which contradicts Romney's bullshit answer tonight).

 

[Tendo]

That would be me. The idiot.

Didn't turn out as bad as I had expected but. Yeah. Whoops. Lesson learned - keep your mouth shut.

Finally got the site to load:

Meh, that is an incredibly weak point against Romney. He doesn't say he commissioned the study, he said he asked and groups brought him the binders. This is Big Bird level stupidity from the left...

They should focus on the clear lies and non-existant plans...Makes me shake my head how they focus on the dumbest stuff because it has a ring to it.

Romney also escaped from clarfiying about self deportation.

Right after Obama says, "is offensive" I love the quick look up from her papers that Crowley gives Romney. So amazing.

A really stupid one. She has pictures on her twitter account of her hanging out with black guys as well.

WTF???

yeah, stupid but look at all the "black dick in mouth" comments. smh

 

[AlteredBeast]

What? I don't remember Obama complaining about time much. That was one of Romney's main problems though. He came off as desperate by cutting off the moderator multiple times

I remember at least twice when Obama was like, "let's make sure we are keeping track of time." and so on, at that point, he had talked almost 60% of the time.

i'm going to LOL when gallup shows a romney bounce

 

[Aaron Strife]

Our CBS5/SurveyUSA poll of CA voters who watched #debate: 56% say #Obama won, 32% say #Romney, 12% tie. Independents say 44% O, 44% R.

Oh fuck guys. CA a tossup state.

 

[Black Republican]

Very happy Obama straight up said he was responsible for the Libya attacks, not Hilary.

 

[Hitokage]

Saw the rose garden moment with clear audio just now. Obama KNEW Romney was about to fire a jammed gun, and let the backfire happen.

"Please proceed".

You mean if you were Mitt? And took some of his ridiculous positions?

I been critical of both candidates weak debate skills but the VP and this were markedly better.

 

[Incognito]

aside from the who won what equation of the debate, i have to say it was just a really good debate overall.

I agree, I could have outdebated Obama on the premise that I could lie without prejudice. Romney kept setting Obama up and then couldn't make his points, even with his disposition to lie.

But he threw her under a bus! Think of how alone she must feel!

[SirButterstick]

Plus, the 'you're a petty little prick' gaze Obama steers towards Romney.

One thing I noticed . . . not a lot of 'ummmmm's' from Obama tonight. He was spot on.

Binders full of women.

I really don't think you could have beaten BO in a debate. I do think your point on calling out Romney more was indeed good, but not necessary given how much of a pounding Obama gave Romney.


=D

your secret is safe with me

Man, you can't beat yourself.

Independents in California are the people who drive in the left-center lane. I wouldn't worry about what they thought.

Teehee

you should have corrected it with "whistle" and put "fixed it for you."

 

[Cloudy]

LMAO @ the Libya moment. Mitt exposed at the liar he is. It's incredible to see media folks criticizing Crowley for that

 

[B-Dubs]

Did Crowley apologize to Romney about acts of terror on CNN and said she was wrong?

I doubt it since she was absolutely correct.

 

[Cloudy]

Romney is such a disrespectful asshat. How can anyone vote for him?

didn't watch the debate but...did Romney say he wanted to eliminate all capital gains tax? Someone said that to me but I didn't believe them as that issue should be popping up...everywhere nonstop.

 

[jbug617]

That is what Twitter is saying.

 

[Aylinato]

I doubt it since she was absolutely correct.

She was indeed 100% factually correct. (including the 14 day thing with Obama and the tapes)


Anyone saying otherwise is a liar.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Sept 12th ambiguous for Romney/Media? Obama clearly called it an Act of Terror on the 13th

He was sneaky. He said he wanted to eliminate capital gains tax for middle-class Americans. No word on eliminating it for the rich, although he did say he wouldn't cut taxes for them.

 

[Touchdown]

Did Crowley apologize to Romney about acts of terror on CNN and said she was wrong?

no that was just Hannity stretching like the republican sloth that he is.
