I don't get this. You're essentially agreeing with me but in a contrarian tone. Is that just because it's the internet?

I agreed but using an old phrase - So and so has as much chance of succeeding as a snowball in Hell- I take it that you have never heard that phrase.

Just a minor blip, don't despair, Obama will prevail, people trust him, many don't trust Romney, he just doesn't come across as genuine!


He didn't come across as genuine? Why was it such a blow out by everyone's account?

Whatever happens in the election, Romney proved that Obama is an empty suit and has no clue of what he's doing.

Maybe Obama can resurrect his previous slogan for 'Hope and Change'... The lemmings will eat that sh*t up!

It also shows how brainwashed the Dems are in the country. He was so far out of his league. The US Liberal Media has been protecting this guy since he started running for office. Without his teleprompter and liberal media censorship this guy is helpless.

What did Obama say yesterday...

"Last night I ran into a spirited fellow... who said his name was Mitt Romney."

Yes Mr. President... that is who it was and you didn't have anyone protecting you this time.

Actually it wasn't a "blowout" by EVERYONE'S account. The consenses is that Romney did marginally better. I didn't see the debate, but the main message I got was Obama was fairly subdued while Romney came out "gangbusters". Remember "still waters run deep".

Come on. They were freaking out on MSNBC and the major news networks! I thought Chris Matthews was going to have a heart attack and the dope Al Gore was blaming the altitude. The list goes on and on. It was a BLOWOUT!

Marginally better... good grief. Romney completely steamrolled him.

OK, mea culpa, I was going by the Canadian reaction!

The daily kossacks (via democratic underground) have uncovered a Romney debate-cheating conspiracy...well, enough said. :lol:

Sometimes a handkerchief is just a handkerchief. :lol:


OK, just found this at Democratic Underground
My sister called and pointed this out. She tells me the debaters are provided with paper and a pen.
You can see the paper on each of the debaters podiums at the start of the video.
They're not supposed to bring notes into the debate.
It happens in the first 11 second of the video linked below



Presidential Debate 2012 (Complete) Romney vs.Obama - 10/3/2012 - Elections 2012 - YouTube

If you watched the debate at all, you can see buddy wipe his upper lip with the damn thing but that doesn't stop the armchair sleight of hand magicians in their comments section from losing their minds. :lol:

- JLM ... I read four Canadian newspapers a day and watch at least two daily news programs on TV and even the informed Canadian consensus was that this was the most one sided presidential debate since they started having presidential debates on TV in 1960.

- Having watched the debate myself and having watched every other president debate from 1960 on except for the Ford-Carter debates in 1976 (I was living in Nigerai then and had to settle for listening to the debates on the Voice of America), I can also tell you that this was indeed the most one sided of these events in history. Romney beat up Obama all night on all topics and if it were a 15 round championship fight would have carried at least 13 of those 15 rounds.

- So I assume that by the Canadian consensus you are referring to the consensus on this board by the mainly left wing liberal element who do most of the posting here.

- If you go by the left-lib Canadian consensus here, you will suffer severely from ignorance and irrationality on the vast majority of political topcs that come up.

- Did you also get your hilarious comment that Obama is honest and trustworthy from the Canadian consensus here. Is he as honest and trustworthy as his party chair, Debbie Wasserman-Shultze.

.

Mostly one sided eh, that should be no surprise to anyone, there is only one side. The security financial complex always wins no matter the size number or planet of origin of the candidates. Informed Canadian consensus? Never heard of it before. I'm sure it dosn't exist.

Oh and now they are simply saying Romney lied... and that is not the REAL Romney.

They have been painting Romney as the next Anti-Christ for some time now. Now the people had a chance to see who Romney is and the left doesn't like that. Clearly Obama didn't know who he was debating.
