who won the debate?
 
you already know your candidate did best so why wait until the debate actually occurs.

instead of posting skewed nonsense afterwards, get the jump and post it now.

poll closes at 9pm eastern.

ROR!! I'm voting for Obama in an attempt to lower expectations.

BREAKING: Romney team frantically rewriting, telling Romney not to use "He's black!" as a #zinger, after Hannity-Carlson-Drudge 2007 video completely fails to re-ignite racist controversy.
I predict the debate will be pretty tame, very careful, with no fireworks or major slipups. Romney can't speak off teleprompter successfully, and has to never go off prepared script (that's when all his previous public disasters have occurred), so he'll be very cautious. Obama will be calm, measured, presidential. I think it will be boring.

I see Mitt wore his Iced Presidential ROLEX, but he was totally outshined by Obama and his Grill.

unfortunatly, you're probably right. we'll likely miss out on gems like this:

“i think it is high time that we recognize the contribution of our founding fathers who worked tirelessly — men like john quincy adams, who would not rest until slavery was extinguished in the country.”

-michele bachmann, apparently unaware that the founding fathers did not work to end slavery, and that john quincy adams was not one of the founding fathers.

Look for those well-practiced (since August) Mitt Zingers (tm) !

The new Rice Krispies "surprise in the box"....The Paul Ron.

wow, wish i'd seen that gem back when she first uttered it.

i think john quincy's last great effort was against the mexican-american war. his last word spoken on the house floor was 'no!' in arguing about the treaty to end it.

i wonder tho if john quincy was one of sarah palins 'favorite founding fathers'? maybe she and michelle went to the same 'history (or close enough)' class!

Danzig 10-03-2012 08:05 PM

Id be asked to leave the debate audience. No way i could hold back a scoff here, a snort there.

bigrun 10-03-2012 08:51 PM

Can i change my vote?...I wanna vote for Mitt...when is POTUS gonna play the 47% zinger?..:zz:

geeker2 10-03-2012 09:01 PM

I am voting for the guy that doesn't have that " deer in the head lights" look.

MaTH716 10-03-2012 09:10 PM

I might even have to take Riot off ignore to see how she spins this ass kicking.

I guess Obama might have to do a little more this time around than just say that he's not Bush.

Coach Pants 10-03-2012 09:12 PM

This is tough to watch. Disgusted with my country.

I previously thought that a prior post of yours was the best I had seen this year, but I spoke too soon.

I can't help myself, but this is not a fair fight. At this point Obama's corner should really throw in the white towel.

If it was a fight...they would stop it !!

Danzig 10-03-2012 09:28 PM

I am surprised that obama hasnt mentioned the 47% at all...he hasnt seemed as aggressive as romney in mentioning things like the 90 billion in subsidies to green energy. I have to say, i think romney was the better of the two overall.

pointman 10-03-2012 09:30 PM

Can I still get 7/2?

Obama seems totally unprepared. Romney's trying to win the election, while Obama's seemingly doing something else.

Either way, what an embarrassment overall.

Danzig 10-03-2012 09:34 PM

I think romney made a good point in mentioning obamas had four years, and discussed some of the things obama said hed do then, and is still saying he would do, because they havent been done.
Im extremely disappointed that nothing was said about afganistan. Its as tho its not even happening. Unreal.

It was domestic issues only.

Yeah, he seemed rather blase at times. I think obama said too much about what he wants to do that is a holdover from his last campaign. That was low hanging fruit for romney to pounce on, and ask well, youve had four years, why didnt you do it already?

I suppose theyll get to it, just seems like a huge issue that everyone ignores. Not just today.

was there any portion of the debate, any topic, that anyone feels obama was stronger on than his opponent?

No. I'm honestly a little surprised at how bad he was.

By the way did you watch it on pbs?

Doesn't this kinda look like Mark Shields?

no, watched it on one of the other channels. whichever one showed the lincoln movie ad right after-that looks like a good movie by the way-and i never praise movies.

at one point, romney moved in such a way that i immediately thought of neidermeyer from animal house tho. :D

i thought obama seemed very detached. i think that's the best word i can think of to describe him. just....very, i don't know, bored? clinical?

Yeah I agree. He reminded me of Bush 41 looking at his watch.

Geez i wonder if Riot is okay. Thought she'd have started at least one thread by now.

It's okay to cry. :D
