    Default Debates

    So I watched the debates tonight. Anyone else? Opinions (minus the ignorant). I found it to be a wash.
    I really can't tell too much of a difference between the two knuckle heads. Mitt being a moderate as well as Obama (not accounting for Obama's vice). Think I'll continue with keeping my ear closer to the local campaigns. Congress I think has been a pig pin (Pigs are better and far more useful than congress).

    I was surprised at how Obama looked like he was lost without his teleprompter. Would've thought he would have shined in this format.

    Romney did good on asking Obama about what has he promised and what has he done. Obama should of hit more on Romney "plans" since not many of us really know what Romney plans on doing.

    You know I was thinking about Obama and his teleprompter failures comparing him to Bush. Bush would say some random crazy thing and Obama just goes um um ahh thing thing about what Im trying to say is...

    Mitt did come way more prepared. Obama had this look on his face, "get me the hell out of here."

    I was somewhat disappointed that they kept speaking for each other. Obama: "Mitt has this 5 million tax plan...blah blah". Romney: "That is just not accurate. blah blah" and vice versa.

    I did think it was funny how neither had respect for the moderator nor the format.

    Yeah, I like how even the news reporters that are usually so obviously in favor of Obama are saying things in favor of Romney! Some even seem like they are making fun of Obama lol

    There has been more media backing a republican in the last month than I have seen in years. Not just on CNBC... I think last night was a wash as well. Where Obama needed a clear victory to offset the first several rounds of debates, he didn't deliver. The great orator, I simply that -- not much of a politician. And a bumbling idiot without a prompt. Last nights debates was a pile of he-said blah blah blah. And I can't believe Obama is STILL talking about Bush!!! It's been 4 years! 2 of which you had a democratic congress! epic fail! Although Romney only boxed him in once and could've done a better job exploiting those opportunities. Pretty boring debate.
