Whats the vote in this forum have to do with anything . 1st off most the posters here seem to post at all hours . Likely not working so ya the vote here would go the demons way. If working and posting on company time also likely makes them demons as they are not productive people and see no problem in cheating the rich on their time . Most get a job at 18 and die having that same walmart job . LOl

As opposed to you, who is barley literate, and can't even use a full stop correctly...

You don't put a space before a full stop! You learn this shit in year 1!

Watching Fox News, they are in damage control, nit-picking Obama's statements, complaining about the stuff Romney didn't challenge Obama on. I think if Romney had won or even had a stronger evening, they would be talking a little more about him.

Funny, you seemed to care quite a bit about who won in the only debate where your guy actually prevailed. Want quotes?
Charles this is beneath you. I didn't think you were a partisan but it seems I was wrong. You've got liberal retardation like the rest of them.

The first debate changed the whole race. I don't care who "won" the first debate I care how it affects the race. Obviously the first debate affected the race.

If you want to say that this debate won't change the race much, fine, I agree with you. But that's different from what you said before, which really sounded like sour grapes.

As for who's winning the war -- not til I see Romney leading in 269 or more EV worth of states.

The crypt keeper on CNN just said that "generally the country is 7% more Democrat than Republican." What a load of shit.

Yeah?

Obama got smoked so badly that even MSNBC had to admit so. If it wasn't the case they would have gladly said so. You can't spin this.

Stop trying to hide behind petty semantics and just answer the question. Otherwise, what are you doing in this thread?

Obama won the debate as Romney, once forced to the point, admitted he'd follow the same policies........

Obama won, just as he did in debate #2. But the larger question of which candidate benefited more from the debates goes to Romney, because his overwhelmingly better performance in the first debate dramatically resuscitated his candidacy.

You just noticed this? You need more coffee.

Exactly. What matters is what happens after the debate. Obama needed a big win tonight and did not get it. He won, but it is a meaningless win.

On the bright side for Mitt -- if he loses the presidency it sounds like he would make a great foreign policy spokesman for Obama.

That doesn't change a thing. Look at the polls before and after the first debate.

I didn't care that Romney "won" I cared that he was effective. Although he did win the debate.

Yes, exactly.

I can go along with this.

How, exactly, did he win the debate?

Seriously.

He's going up against a guy with four years of foreign policy experience when he has none. He sits there and basically agrees with every single thing Obama is already doing. Even ignoring the panicked look on his face and the desperate attempts to turn the conversation back to the economy, what exactly did he do that "won" the debate?

I don't get the logic that the guy leading the EC needed the big win? Obama is leading in battleground states, I'd say mitt needed a clear FP differentiator and he failed at that by agreeing with Obama most of the night.

Yes, exactly.

It turned him from not having the slightest chance of winning to having a chance, but at the same times Obama's performance in the last 2 debates looks to be enough to stop Romney from winning.
