Willard doesn't drink alcohol, nor "hot" drinks like coffee or tea, it's against his religion.

Then you'd likely chalk up Romney's performance to dehydration, eh?

I still have faith the American people aren't as stupid as the democrats and their propaganda outfit think they are.

Do you, or do you not think he is capable of being the leader of the free world? If he is capable of that, he should be able to kick a$$ during a presidential debate, given the fact that he has every possible resource at his fingertips. If he can't overcome the big, scary (yet somehow simultaneously lame) media, he sure can't hold his own on a world stage.

It sounds to me like you think he's going to tank and are already making excuses.

Paul Ryan's already been making excuses.

I'm baffled as to why you would blame the media when it's Chris Christie running all over the news saying that Romney is going to have a "game changing" debate--he's the one saying that Romney needs to hit this one out of the park. Here's what he said on NBC over the weekend:

Christie: Debate will turn presidential race 'upside down' - POLITICO.com
Christie sees debate as re-setter - POLITICO.com

He also took the "poll truthers" to task, stating that of course the polls are accurate, and that Romney is fighting to come up from behind. Here's what he said on ABC:

I doubt there is a politician in America who would want to see Romney whipped good more than Christie. He wants that shot in 2016.

It was funny one Sunday's Meet the Press when Christie advised Romney to "go big."

The media is not setting him up. He is the only one that can win it or lose it. It he is going in like he is running his campaign then he may as well stay home.

I know Obama isn't and his actions over the past four years have proven that true.

He seems to be doing a pretty good job overcoming the big bad media. They seem in desperation mode lately. Like I said I have faith the American people aren't as stupid as the democrats think they are. It seems the media is starting to think the same thing.
