Amen... Whether you stand Left, Right or Center, I'm left with the impression that this was a train-wreck, all around... definitely sub-par... |

Ha! Say you believe in world peace again, Mitt. Now all I can picture is an evening gown and a flaming baton.

I don't remember how well Obama did with the debates, when it came to foreign policy. It seems likely that the incumbent always has the advantage in that particular topical area, but I seem to remember Obama telling people what they wanted to hear, about bring troops home, ending wars, and all of that. Well, that is what he's doing. |

Obama's comment about free Mass state college tuition for high school students who consistently score at the top of the MCAS test was wrong. Obama said it went into effect 10 years before Romney became governor but he was probably confused with the MCAS test itself. Free state college tuition was Romney's idea.

the past couple hours have seriously given me a headache. try watching the Giants kicking ass at the same time. I'm trying to avoid that, I have the Lions QB in my fantasy league and need to catch up 40 some-odd points. wait, do you mean the baseball Giants...? ETA: I've been on vacation since mid-last week, tonight's my first night home and catching up on things. I seriously don't know what teams are playing in any sport right now lol... |

6.5 million tweets during the debate. Which raises the question, why are they called tweets instead of twits? Maybe the twit is the person wasting part of their day posting tweets.

I simply could not believe Mitt Romney had to remind Obama that a nuclear armed Iran is the greatest threat to peace. I was stunned, blown away, shocked, and amazed that on the easiest question on the biggest foreign policy question of our time, Obama struck out. Again.
The contrast couldn't be more clear on this point. Obama just doesn't get it.

The official Tony Tiger Nobody Cares line has it as: Obama is the winner, by the slimmest of margins imaginable. What a friggin waste of time. That's two hours of my life that I am NEVER going to get back!  But I have nobody but myself to blame... ;D |

Biggest blunder of all three debates. Why does Obama need constant reminders on easy questions of national security like a nuclear armed Iran is the greatest threat to peace?
