Romney is running away with another debate. Following Obama on the stage, he confronts him directly.

Obama is not used to this. He has a record….and he can’t afford to defend this.

“It is not enough merely to win; others must lose.” ― Gore Vidal

Don't you love who the quote is from, Jeff? I do.

Yummy, yummy tears. I love watching overrated jerks lose.

Romney did a great job of being presidential.

I thought it was a draw, with a slight edge to Romney because of Obama's whoppers about Libya. However, Obama's failure to change the momentum in his favor is really a win for Romney.

All Romney needed was to hold serve which was what he did. Hopefully, this clunker of a debate will spell the end of the town hall format.

You know, Town Hall would be fine with a few Conservative moderators.

I'd go for Bill Whittle. The loony left wouldn't know what hit them as they would have a real moderator instead of a tag team partner for the opponent.

The polls have Romey losing. Intrade has Romney losing. Jeff Lord has Romney running away with a dominating victory. Its almost as if Jeff is a partisan hack.

allow me to borrow the phrase, 'you're entitled to your own opinion, but you're not entitled to your own facts'...the latest Gallup polling puts Romney 4 points ahead of ObaMao...and if you look at the numbers, ObaMao has lost ground vs his 2008 numbers in EVERY demographic:

sorry, but facts DO matter

It could be ALMOST LIKE but in actually is definately so that YOU ARE A LIAR [just as is Obama and Crowley and the entire MSM]. Your boy can't hide from the TRUTH that common sense demands everyone knows for a certainty about this situation. Go on LYING but no one of us will believe you!!!!!!!!

RCV| 10.17.12 @ 1:28AM

You're delusional, Jeffrey.

Oldefarte| 10.17.12 @ 1:25PM

You are LYING, RCV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Skippy| 10.17.12 @ 12:23PM

We shall see.

Oldefarte| 10.17.12 @ 1:24PM

Obama can't hide from the TRUTH of his LYING and that is a FACT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vance P. Frickey| 10.18.12 @ 6:39PM

Romney needs to focus on three things: Obama's record versus his rhetoric; Obama's disregard for and ignorance of the Constitution (particularly the separation of powers); Obama's moving America away from a nation of laws, not men.

These are the things which leftists have traditionally decried in Republican administrations; the Democratic Party's mythos is built on charges of incompetence and failure to lead, different rules for those in power and those who pay the nation's bills, and Byzantine power games during Republican administrations.

But it's all happening during a Democratic administration, when we were sold "hope and change" and "unprecedented transparency."

The same press that pilloried Richard Milhous Nixon for stonewalling Congressional investigations, usurping the right to make laws, and trying to create an imperial Presidency hasn't treated Operation Fast and Furious with the same outrage they had for a botched burglary in the Watergate apartment complex; can you imagine the screaming if G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt had been routing assault rifles to Mexican drug gangs to help push gun laws through Congress, instead of swiping papers from the DNC after hours?
