Jim Lehrer is such a badass.

Obama seems nervous. He should settle in once he gets annoyed or angry.

 

[Gamingphreek]

It would be really cool if Obama answered the question.

 

[SheHateMe]

Did they pick those ties out on purpose or what? Blue and Red Striped, They look cute!

 

[TheDev]

Obama taking a nap turning Romney's boring speech.

 

[theevilsharpie]

Romney: I will help grow small businesses!!!1!

The SBA is one of the most important lifelines available to small businesses. Republicans have been trying to kill it since Clinton's presidency.

 

[yllus]

I forgot how little actually gets said during these things.

 

[SheHateMe]

How the hell do you burn "Clean" Coal? Its a pollutant regardless of what you do.

 

[amdhunter]

lol, Romney on the offensive.

 

[Mixolydian]

Clean coal is an oxymoron.

 

[Gamingphreek]

It would be really cool if Obama answered the question.

I kind of wish Romney had asked Obama a question like Lehrer requested...

 

[yllus]

Yeah, clean coal is a pure bullshit term. Looks like Obama is getting underway now...

 

[TheDev]

Jim Lehrer groaning like a moron while Obama speaks.

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

I kind of wish Romney had asked Obama a question like Lehrer requested...

He sohuld've at the end, but if he jumped right to that, he would've been at 2 min speaking versus Obama's 4 min. He naturally had to get in his 2 minutes first.

 

[TheDev]

Romney talked for like 10 minutes, then Obama gets 2 minutes and Lehrer starts groaning.

 

[SLCentral]

Anyone know where CNN's +/- data below the screen is coming from? How big the sample size is, and what are the possible inputs (binary approve/disapproval, scale, etc)?

 

[Balt]

Romney says he isn't going to lower the tax burden of the rich? Eh?

 

[TheDev]

Romney is going to get a huge bump in the polls. He is owning Obama.

Gallup poll tomorrow:
Obama: 39%
Romney: 61%

 

[Bowfinger]

Romney's already getting upset. Not a good sign for him. He has to keep his cool.

 

[SheHateMe]

Can someone make a collage of all of Romney's facial expressions while Obama is talking? lmao

 

[PottedMeat]

Anyone know where CNN's +/- data below the screen is coming from? How big the sample size is, and what are the possible inputs (binary approve/disapproval, scale, etc)?

srand(bullshit) ?

lol

 

[SheHateMe]

 

[Gamingphreek]

Lol @ Romney saying "If you say something enough, it might make it true"

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

39% not 40% right?...

 

[PhatoseAlpha]

So the small businesses which aren't small businesses employ the most people employed by small businesses?

Doesn't that make them large businesses?
