i decided to give cnn a chance after hearing that fareed was on.

i almost shut it off when the dude called obama's claim that libya cost two weeks of iraq false because he was off by fractional amount. nitpicky bullshit.

then i turned it off when they put on a 3d holographic real size image of a nuclear weapon to help "explain" the "iran issue."

fucking idiots insulting my intelligence.

 

[cousins]

CNN is an atrocity

 

[ISOM]

bravo performance by obama this evening. looking at the early snap polls i'm reasonably sure my algorithm will respond positively to the numbers. this may seal the deal for obama.

What is your algorithm? 2+2=4?

in case you missed it in the OT thread:

Oh please, oh please let the Republicans turn on Mitt.

If the next two weeks are for Romney like the first two in October were for Obama, I will be so happy. Probably won't, but oh how I wish.

They've gotta know deep down that Mitt is still behind.. right? Right?

They'd lose nothing by turning on him right now. He'll lose anyway. Might as well act like a party leader/trendsetter by turning on Miss loudly - NOW!

considering the election is in about two weeks, now would be a really good fucking time!

for real.

i'm hesitant to say too much since my algorithm is proprietary, but suffice to say it includes all relevant statistical data encompassing national and state polls in addition to important economic metrics. where my model diverges, however, is that instead of relying solely on empirical data points i also factor in considerations such as twitter mentions, fb posts, and fundraising numbers, among other things, to conclude within a 3.5% margin of error who will win.

But that maybe the difference between control of the House. So I hope you're right!

Exactly what I was thinking. It was like a republican primary of 1996.

Which, incidentally, is why Im not voting for Obama.

I wish it was a full turn. Like 6 minutes after that he insisted that Romney was the adult, and Obama was a rude bully.

 

[Sirpopopop]

Incognito - we need to add your poll to our list of polls.

Then incorporate it into the NeoGAF front page.

Matthew Stafford is pulling a Mitt Romney Foreign Policy Debate Perfomance for my fantasy team, tonight.

My opponent has him tonight. I'm up 50 points regardless, come on Stafford get some TDs...

Bears beating Lions like Obama beat Romney

So how do you feel now PD?

I am sensing, more than ever thus far, some cracks in the GOP facade. My relatives online are livid right now. And the free republic crew isn't a happy ground either.

I think they know that Obama has this. And I think it's killing them.

 

[giga]

We haven't seen a one point swing yet though in real polls (not snap). So don't count your chickens yet.

As both someone who has Stafford in fantasy and is a Lions fan, I really needed an Obama win tonight.

Is this a sign of things to come? They really might pull a 180 on Romney in record time if he loses.

As it should, if Dem voters turned out in full force in all demo's it could produce a wave election. Its their worst fear because they honestly don't give a shit about Romney

Lions season ends tonight, Obama may have won re-election tonight. Dunno how to feel

Holy shit. Mitt's political career is so fucked. He's going to be thrown under the bus and ran over so many times.

Came out of my self-imposed 2 week media vacation to see how tonight turned out.

I was not displeased.

Feel good. Hilary has a better shot in 2016 because of it.

Edit: Oh, you're a Lions fan. lol

Flawless.

 

[Raine]

Uh oh. Are Republicans panicking like Dems after the first debate lol

It'd be interesting to see if this has more of an effect on the race than the 2nd debate did.

 

[Darkgran]

I have benn saying it over and over in this tread and tonight just confirms it. Obama is NOT losing this election.

Mitt trying to take credit for the test scores in Mass pissed me and a lot of teacher friends right off.

When I have students pass their state exams they are usually thrilled - best part of the year for me. So many times they have said "Mr. Mel Gibson Avatar, thank you for helping me pass this test." And I tell them "I didn't do anything. You took the test. You studied and prepared."

That sounds hokey but I have had that exchange A LOT. But to hear this guy go up there and take the credit away from hard working teachers and students? WHAT. THE. HELL. I don't owe my test scores to Gov. Perdue, or even my principal. I had a principal try to take credit for my test scores once. I left their school.

What in the hell does the governor have to do with that? And this coming from the guy that said he saw no problem increasing class size into the 40's? Sweet mother of God. If he wins I don't know how long I'll stay teaching. As long as I can but...wow...

To hear him take credit for their work and then smirk...I hate this man. I genuinely don't like him as a person.

Yo PD - you want to co-sponsor a poll with me.

Our methodology will be based on twitter mentions, panic index, punditry statements, and analysis of the demeanor of candidate wives.

it would be funny if this debate was the one that gave a bump to O compared to the 2nd one

 

[IrishNinja]

man, now that all 3 are done...some debate/chess game 101 was at play here

feign weakness in the early moves, offer up some pawns & get your opponent cocky/hungry, then start those aggressive gambits outta nowhere that leave only time to breathe and maybe react defensively, that's some sun tzu shit right there

You're a teacher? Mitt loves teachers.

But seriously, you sound like a good teacher.

If debates really mattered, we would see a huge Obama bump.

Thing is, they don't matter. It's the media narrative that does and we'll see if the media is as harsh on Romney as they were on Obama when he was passive. Obviously we won't see the GOP pile on their guy. They're actually good at politics!

 

[trh]

Glenn Beck's tweet was funny and all, but it's followed by 10+ tweets berating Obama for being a bully and praising Romney for taking the high road. You guys are reading into it too much.
