[Politician Spock]

Obama is taking his wife out for their anniversary dinner now... and later he's going to get ###### for the 2nd time tonight.

dignified reserve

and Pickles Game Changer!

 

[NutterButter]

Excellent debate for Romney. No doubt he kicked O's butt. Obama pretty much stuck to the campaign line which has done very well so far. We'll see how the poll numbers move.

 

[johnnycakes]

Am I the only one watching PBS Newshour?

Yes. Romney said he will pull its funding.

 

[CrossEyed]

CNN has Van Jones on. Now there's a good, neutral opinion for you.

Based on the moderation tonight, maybe mitt is onto something with defunding PBS.

 

[flapgreen]

This O'Malley guy is a fool too.

Does Michelle have a strap on? I heard she bench presses the President every night.

Concubox: "OK Jim, I've got this round at 9 Romney 8 Obama. Back to you Jim"

 

[tommyGunZ]

MSNBC praising Romney and saying how disappointed they were in Obama... didnt expect that

You must not watch much MSNBC.

 

[phrozen]

it is an embarrassment to have him as my governor

I hear she's big into pegging

 

[The Kerminator]

Wasn't it Police Academy where the hooker was in the commandants podium as he was giving his speech?It was O's anniversary...

 

[jonessed]

CNN is struggling here . They haven't gone full whack-job, but they are treading that line.

 

[boots11234]

I don't know #### about politics but I turned to msnbc because of this thread. Theses people are full of ####.

Wait until Mathews is on again, you just may witness a stroke live.

Which guy is that?

Blond haired guy who looks drunk and is red I. The face. The one with the tingle in his leg.

lehrer is done moderating. he made the replacemnent refs look good

 

[snowmonkey501]

tonights debate:

romney is to obama as clint eastwood is to an empty chair

 

[wazoo11]

Bill Maher tweeting that Obama got hammered....wow

I thought Maher was a fan of Ron Paul.

 

[Daywalker]

So cutting taxes on job creators + nullifying those gains by closing loopholes/deductions = Jobs.

 

[phrozen]

has anyone mentioned that lehrer = the replacement refs tonight?

 

[Smack Tripper]

Krauthammer with a great point on Fox, how did Obama not introduce the 47 percent into this thing? in his words, CK thinkings Obama thought he could stand up there and run out the clock for 90 minutes and I agree...

Looks like your stereotypical full of #### politician.

 

[pittstownkiller]

Obama is best when he runs out the clock! I guess when you are winning you just let Romney punch himself out.

I'm watching on CNN with the split screen and Mitt looks non-presidential when he's not speaking. The look on his face is annoying.

He must have campaign managers that worked on that. He's probably trying to look respectful, but it comes across as a forced smirk.

My wife asked me why Mitt had a moony weird smile on his face and gazed lovingly at Obama the whole debate.

Romney must of reminded her of how you look at Obama.

 

[phrozen]

Bill Maher tweeting that Obama got hammered....wow

I thought Maher was a fan of Ron Paul.

I would have loved if Paul was the nominee

 

[snowmonkey501]

"scientific" poll of "undecideds" on who won tonight to be released shortly...

 

[HellToupee]

watching the big booze hound John King

played softball with him before , his head is so big he didn't fit into a hat

 

[NutterButter]

So I know the cons on this board have to be pumped. I expect a lot more active wagering. If you guys can't back your guy and your mouth after by far the brightest moment for your boy's campaign, then you're a bunch of phonies. And don't give me this odds nonsense. If all your con skewed polls had Romney tied with O before this debate, then if anything, your guy should be the favorite.

 

[KiddLattimer]

what the hell happened to Al Sharpton?

He weighs like 110....his head is like 90 of that.

Kind of looks like Snoopy's cousin Spike My link

I'm waiting on this guy. I hope he's not dead yet.

Clearly you weren't able to comprehend his point... that's the only way obama gets reelected.

Agree. Obama had opportuniy to throw punches but he didn't.

 

[boots11234]

Funny unnamed quote "Obama got Mitt slapped."

 

[BeaverCleaver]

Wow...even the left think Obama got nailed tonight.

 

[HellToupee]

Fun night but still doesn't mean much . Mitt needs to have another big night & hold his own in the other one

 

[Andy Dufresne]

In all seriousness was Mitt sandbagging up to this point resulting in the President underestimating him.

 

[NutterButter]

I think he played it safe. He's in great shape with the electoral college, why risk turning off the independents in a state like Ohio with what could be considered cheap politics in an otherwise very civil debate.

Romney went down from +220 to +200 just now. GET YOUR BETS IN!

Is that tingling gone yet Mr. Mathews?

Im guessing the bottle actually said take one pill every four hours. Not, well, whatever you did.

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

I was in and out a little but I thought Romney did well in the parts I saw. The President was tentative and measured, Romney clearly aggressive. It looked like the equivalent of one debating with a big lead and one debating from behind. Obama was in the prevent and Romney got some quick scores. Obama did better towards the end but the first impression is clearly going to stick. I doubt it will change the election math much though.

Agree. Obama had opportuniy to throw punches but he didn't.

I wonder if the recently released video of Obama speaking to the black pastor conference in 2007 ad anything to do with that. Not sure talking about what someone says "behind closed doors" is a good idea when you've said some things yourself that might not reflect all that well.

Mitt is a very good 1 on 1 debater , not so much in a crowded panel. He's always been that way.

Also shocked that the 47% thing didn't get brought up.Obama not getting one annual budget passed in 4 years (2 years with both Democrat-controlled houses) should have been brought up as well. Only time in American history.

 

[phrozen]

wow

Hannity looks like death warmed over

 

[HellToupee]

I said Mitt would take it to Obama & hold his own. Poor Obama gets hamstrung by people thinking he's a great debater
