Your Debate Open Thread

Can't watch it ...actually choosing not to.
Are there really enough 'undecided' voters at this point to make a difference?

Looking forward to SDA expert analysis.

Hoping Romney will take the opportunity to expose the Obama lying empty suit con artist.
I'm actually not impressed with Romney.
I will watch the VP debates. Ryan will cream Biden

In case anyone needs a live feed:

C-SPAN debate live feed (click on Live Feed)

Oooooooo. The O will be off the leash tonight we will see just how much he depends on the TelePrompTer....lol.

how can you not watch?

gardener - well I want to watch but how!? Where!?

"Trickle down Gov't" - Romney

Right before SCOAMF describes larger govt.

Miller has the best comment today.

Said that the polls are lying (did not actually say that, its an interpretation), does not believe the polls.

Things are better for Romney than the "journalists" would like the plebeians to believe.

Check him out on FOX.

Romney is killing here. Point form, concise.

Obama is on the defensive.

Already heard a few ummm and uhhhs from Barry O. He is also looking down and sheepish like some kid in the principal's office during Mitt's oration. Methinks Mitt is scoring some points here.

Obama is just rambling. Already.

Aaaaannnd. . . . aaaaannnd . . . . aaaaaannnd

First round Romney - Government Trickle Down - brilliant.

But in a later esponse of Romney to Obama, view from the rear showed Obama's shoulders sagging and his head low. He feels defeated. He knew this was coming and he had no response. Romney is the little pink bunny.

Obama keeps lying about raising (or is it cutting) taxes .. O's position all rather confusing; big mistake if Romney goes defensive here.

He remains on the attack.

Obama stammers and hesitates ... what about Sorros ?

So far, Romney's takin' it to the Big Zero.
He has to stay focused, nail O on his failings!

The Governor is giving Obama a lesson in economics and the tax code.

Romney is relentles ... Obama doesn't know this carp.

Obama: "Jim, my socialist ally, you may want to shut thius part of the debate down". Obama continues to repeat the lies that Romney has rejected.

Obama is just repeating an old formula.

I could handle some anger from Romney over what Obama has done to America. And when Obama goes on about favouring the rich, Romney should talk about Obama's Hollywood friends.

Obama - Time for a different segment, Jim, I'm getting killed here.

Our beloved state broadcaster is hosting a live chat. They are moderating the comments beforehand instead of taking out the objectionable ones as they appear. The moderator appears to be an Obama fan.
A billion bucks a year,but they cannot do the simplest tasks right.

Romney is ignoring the rules and crucifying Obama.

"We've tried both approaches" -Obama.

Yeah, one started the depression, one kept us there

Is it only I or did anyone else notice that the modrator insisted, every time that Romney wanted to make point, to stop him.

The moderator encouraged the President to answer.

Why would that be?

on Debt/Deficit spending cuts, "Is it worth borrowing money from China" - Romney

Is this program worth borrowing money from China to pay for! Brill, just brill. I haven't seen Romney ever so animated.

It's alive, Jim!

CBC showing their live voting "who's winning the debate" feed and have Obama leading w/ 71 % on 150 odd votes.

Blame Bush now. Blame Bush tommorrah. Blame Bush forevah!

Okay...that's balls America needs to see and hear, Mr. Romney..."I'll cut funding to PBS..." while looking directly at Mr. News of PBS! Love it! A picture of Harper saying he'd cut funding to CBC briefly flashed before my eyes!

O-bombing!

No-teleprompter!

barry's thin skin is showing. The lecturer is getting schooled.

Romney doing well. Obama lost without a teleprompter.

Why is Jim Lehrer sugeesting responses to his helpess. useless president? He is asking Obama questions that provide him the answer to get out of his problem.

Jim Lehrer is an Democrat hack

Lehrer is actually prompting Obama on what to say in response to Romney's points.. And giving him more time.

"I want to do the same thing". Well you had four years to change things. I guess you can't change things from the inside.

Oh $hit! Seems 47% of America is tuned in to The Big Bang Theory!

"My feeling is that if you can afford a private jet, you don't deserve any tax breaks." SCOAMF

And the private jet industry tanked, Mr. President. Those were well paying union jobs.

Obama is killing him. He also seems to be getting extra time based on my stopwatch.

"Budgets reflect choices." You mean a budget in the last four years would have been a good idea?

Soccermom, you had the same thought as me.

Romney nails Obama on subsidies to green industries - "50 years' worth into solar and wind."

ZING!!

who needs a teleprompter when you have Jim Lehrer feeding you talking points?

"Is a program worth borrowing money from China?" Maybe it's early but it's got my vote for statement of night from these two...even though lame stream media will put the Messiah on top.

"I've been in business for 25 years, I haven't a clue what you are talking about." Oh, and you only pick losers.

Romney to Obambam, "You don't pick winners and losers you just pick losers."

"You don't pick winners and losers, you just pick losers." That gets my vote for the line of the night so far.

Here comes the Grandmother poverty babe, who was a VP of a bank. Married - although apparently now not married, to his wife's mother.

My heart bleeds while he is not talking about the question.

There goes Obozo again, going off topic with his granny. Non-specific

Break out the violins!

Langmann:

Are you sure you meant Obama is killing him?

It's not what I'm seeing.

I agree with Frank Q.. Even with an unfair moderator, Romney is doing very well.
