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.

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.

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

Either way, what an embarrassment overall.

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.

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

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.

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.
