Romney's stage presence is much better than I thought . . .


I agree. I was expecting "Phil Mickelson" whining.

But - - he does kind of go there when he starts talking faster.

Obama was a little "stuttery hesitant" - - - but he keeps the same pace and same tone level.

Romney now starting to sound desperate - - - in his voice and presentation.

Now Romney is telling you how much he is going to cut out of social programs.

Suck it middle class, just deal with it. You don't see him saying he is going to cut subsidies to oil companies or tax cuts to corporations, no no, he is going to cut healthcare for the middle class and any other social programs he deems unworthy.

The middle class should be crying at this point.


You must be watching another debate....I didn't hear that....I did hear him say he'd cut Obamacare. And give social programs to the States to determine their needs. I like that....

It seems like Obama doesnt know what hes talking about, and Romney is lying. What a great set of choices.


Lol a liar and an idiot. My thoughts exactly.

The Government is making 25 billion a year at the pump via the gas tax.

Same crap different day Obama bailed GM who had plants in Canada, and Mexico and other parts of the world.

What a liar.

Romney is wearing black and orange, I see, which are Halloween colors, so he's seasonal.

Still, the NDAA scares me more than goblins.


At least he's not wearing his spray-on oompa loompa tan....

Very much agreed. Obama seems far more in control now.

Yes - - I agree.

Obama seems to be settling down - - - smoothing out his delivery.

Romney seems to be speeding up - - - like a person who is nervous. Almost like "over talking".

I don't know about that. Romney is making a lot of sense on the taxation issues. He's pounding Bama on the deficit.

It might be my (though high functioning) Aspergers, but I am having a hard time following them.

Methinks what they are doing is called ... filibustering?

So can we do 'the nuclear option' and replace those two with John Stewart and Steven Colbert?

It's the fist debate.

They're kind of feeling each other out - - - in their style and delivery techniques IMO.

Romney seems fine to start. He goes for a couple of sentences and gets through the first few thoughts. Then he begins to stumble. Obama responds with his even tone and then back to Romney starting to talk to fast, jumping around, and "opps I forgot".

What either of them say is useless almost. Both of these guys are lying out of their asses. This is election mode. Everything changes in January.

They are both idiots SS is not even close to being fiscally sound it is a ponzi scheme first in first out, and leave others holding the bag the proof in the pudding?

The continued rhetoric of trying to raise taxes to fill that empty gap as a stop measure.

Actually yes it is structurally fine. The only real problem with it that is easy enough to fix is to raise or remove the the 250k wage cap on it until the enough of the boomers die off so you can put it back into effect or remove it permanently and give higher benefits.

Romney the RINO

"you have ot have regulation in a free market"

A free market is the absence of government intervention which means no regulation which means this nation had and will never have a free market.
