2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)

Don't think he did,he was playing by the rules of the debate,next time cut off Romney and say hell with the rules.

Obama spoke for 4 minutes longer then Romney did without saying much. So, I can't say Obama played by the so called rules.

From the past presidential debates I've grown to expect interjections considering it is a debate after all. If a candidate isn't able to counter effectively with extra speaking time then it sounds like "blah,blah,blah".

President Obama was off last night. No other way to put it. Romney won, Obama lost.

Two more debates to go and a jobs report tomorrow.

Kind of funny you say that.

Going back to the Bush/Gore election. In Fla. one of the cases brought to the Fla supreme court was whether people in the military would be allowed to vote from out of state. There is a problem with some countries not using postmarks. Fla law says that out of state votes had to be "Postmarked" before a certain date. Even though the dates were written on the envelopes when they were received, and they were received well in advance, the dems still went after those votes claiming them to be illegal votes, due to no postmark. They knew those votes were legitimate but tried to suppress them anyways... and actually won the case (Overturned later).

So you want to claim that people have died for this country and then complain about normal peoples votes being suppressed. How about you douches trying to kill the votes of the ones who are actually willing to die to give you that right. For some reason, that wont bother you if a vote for a republican is not allowed.

The massively hypocritical part is that all the libs in Fla were carrying around signs that said "Every Vote Must Count". Yet when it was announced that every vote would not count (You know, those people who were willing to die to give you certain freedoms), libs were waving those signs in the victory dance.

Stop using the military and them dying for your rights as your reasoning for you being allowed to vote then claiming they dont deserve the right to vote as well.


Sorry, you're way off the mark. I won't address most of your post, but I will say this -- when I say people died, I wasn't referring to military. Where in the hell did you get that? I'm talking about pre-civil rights activists and those who fought for the right to vote in the 50s and 60s.

Mitt 1 Obama 0

It wasnt even close, Obama didnt look prepared. Al Sharpton and Rachel Madow were so mad on MSNBC after the debate, it was hilarious. I woulda loved to see a Smackdown thread on that debate last night. Obama better tighten his belt and bring it next time.

Bad news is all the pressure is now on Biden for next week, which is never good.You called it pre-debate, well done. This was far better than I could've even scripted it. Great job to MR gettin' it done....Romney style.

Ryan will do the same to Biden next week.

Obama came off almost like John Kerry. A bit too wordy and long winded.

He needs to keep stuff short and sweet. Don't be defensive be offensive. Also call Mittens out on being inconsistent and changing his policies. Repeat 47%, I like firing and etch a sketch numerous times.

I too thought Romney "won" but to me if I were a Democrat I'd be more concerned about how over-the-top the commentary was on how bad Obama did. I mean certainly neither guy last night convinced someone to change their vote. Perhaps Romney attracted a few undecideds but he can easily lose those in the coming debates too. But the consistent hand-wringing only magnifies Obama's performance which should just be left as basically irrelevant.

Obama was in prevent defense all night. Mitt kept marching down the field.

When I saw the Ragin Cagin James Carvelle speak last spring, he already said the Dem werent taking the election then serious enough and his fear was the attitude could drag into november. Well if last night wasnt a wake up call...

I agree with you,I was mad at the education segment of the debate ,Romney say Mass has the best schools...nope....

only one high school in the top 20 of the northeast and that's out on the Cape.

He was talking about education in general not school by school.

only one high school in the top 20 of the northeast and that's out on the Cape.odds are good that Romney was talking about a survey that's more accurate than anything you could pull out of your *** as usual. but you didn't consider that did you?

edit: and I see firstdown found an example above. thanks fd.
