Obama did seem a bit too relaxed and he never really pressed Romney very much. That debate would have been an excellent time to mention the 47% comment, but Obama thought it was more important to be chummy by mentioning his wife and their anniversary.

Yes. Wow.

I'm kind of worried now but also confused...wasn't Romney supposed to be a bumbling idiot ala Bush 2.0? Did he have someone telling him what to say?

Romney came prepared. He's been practicing since August. On the other hand, it seemed like Obama just "showed up." Obama and his team were too overconfident.

Next week will be the VP debate.


As for presidential debates, Oct 16th will be a debate about domestic and foreign policy, town hall style. Oct. 22 will be about foreign policy only.

I'm on the Obama side but he did awful Romney owned owned owned him!!!

[rihannasbe$tfrnd]

Why did Obama turn me on so much around the 15 minute mark after Romney says something about making him believe it. That smile, ugh.

God you are so blind. You gotta look past the CBS and NBC polls, you need to look at their samples.
Scroll down to the bottom and look at the Democrats vs. Republicans that were polled. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-...in;contentBody

Stop with the right-wing, self-made poll controversy. The reasoned why more Dems were polled than Reps is that more people in those states identify themselves as democrats than republicans. Simple as that...

His team was honestly probably expecting Romney to spread idiotic lies and flip flop throughout the entire debate - oh wait he did that. The fact is a lot of people are reading these fact checkers. Hopefully Jon Stewart, Colbert and other media sources will help makes those lies more public to the American people these next few days.

There were a lot of lies Obama should've clearly clocked. Like this one for example: Fact check: Romney's claim that Obama cut $716 billion from Medicare has been repeatedly debunked http://t.co/WiLRpRIB. How did he not clock that when Romney's lying about what HE said?

[Quiqui4eva]

I think Obama wants to lose the election. What was up with him yesterday? He barely argued about anything that Romney said.

Romney, however, clocked him over and over again.

Obama didn't seem very prepared. The team was to overconfident about it. Obama could have called him out on a lot of things but he didn't. It's pretty sad. He should have called him out on the 47% comment. I really don't want this to mess up his chance of winning.

Vote for the better liar.

Romney is a terrible liar. I ain't votin' for that rich son of a bitch who talked in circles & interrupted everyone.

He needs his lips stapled shut.

I mean Obama had all the points together,but his execution was TERRIBLE.Kind of like some of our faves' album promo.

Romney won this debate simply because Obama came in this underprepaed.By next week,I want Obama's debating skills to be revamped at least to the point where he can gain some aggressiveness towards Romney.

Also,there were a lot of missed opportunities for Obama to DRAG Romney,and a few arguments (cough Gay Rights,Women's Rights) that were either underrepresented or NOT represented at all.

[Doc]

I'm anxious for the next Presidential debate. I need Obama to turn this around.

SMH pay attention.
this debate was only about the economy, health care, and education.

and he took many attempts to DRAG romney that failed because it was false info. just as you can say so easily romney is lieing, its very easy to say obama is lieing too.

[danitykanelover]

Also, i dont understand why no one is looking at the promises Romney is making and taking them seriously, such as not bringing upon ANY tax cuts that will add to the debt or not taking ANY more borrowed money from China.
Everything Obama promised last election was taken as something that would definitely happen and IT DIDN'T, so why does Romney get called out for making false promises and that is why people aren't going to vote for him. That is EXACTLY what Obama did (ie. promising to cut the deficit in half in 4 years, instead doubling it) and people just completely ignore that. I personally believe Romney will live up to his promises, but he could be telling us he is a white male and most liberals won't believe him.

Oh,I paid attention....

It's funny how a few conservatives can say Obama can't even come up with a coherent argument when Unfit Mitt makes the absolute dumbest statements.I know Mitt was running on Half Truths,stretchers,and LIES.You can tell by that conniving ass,sneaky ass smile that he wasn't being completely truthful.

if his smile is all you have to go on for why he isn't being honest then you shouldn't even bother voting. if mitt was lieing like barack he wouldn't have been able to look him straight in the eye when he spoke, unlike obama who just looked down and shook his head.
