To be hones I haven't paid much attention to either of their campaigns. All you see is the usual rhetoric. What I pay attention to is reality. Reality is Obama is a failure. Is Romney? We will find out as Obama had his chance and blew it. If Romney does the same then he gets voted out next time around. That is how it works unless your a card carrying democrat or republican swooner who just votes straight ticket no matter what. Those are the types that shouldn't be allowed to vote IMO.

I assume that you didn't see the debates with the other republicans? Obama will be here for another 4 years.

Ron Paul won them all, even when they didn't give him time.

The fix has been in place for longer than there has been an election campaign churning.
The establishment picked another GW. Bush, for us to hold our noses and pull the lever for.

Obama will win this election for good reason.

Obama would not be able to debate Ron Paul. How can you debate honesty and truth?

I'm not a Ron Paul supporter, but I completely agree that he would take both Romney and Obama to town in a debate.
Of course, he's been deliberately marginalized by the media and the political establishment (as have other non-Dem/Repub candidates), so much of the country will never know

I cant believe any one will change there preference for candidate no matter who wins or loses the debates,,
KUchief25 You gonna vote for Obama if he wins the debates?
Am i going to vote for Romney if wins the debates?
A definite no on both counts.
These debates are rather pointless as means of determining who one will vote for in the upcoming election,
Big winners in the debates will be the media and all the commercials they can fit into not only the debates but the ensuing days of commentary on those debates.

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.
The msm doesn't shoot willard in the foot, not when he does it himself, so quit blaming the media, the man is a born ditz.

Nah...you don't want that, because you might find out that there isn't as much difference between these people as you hoped. Actually, you already know that, but for purposes of these threads, you can't really say so. LMAO

If you haven't been paying attention to the campaigns, how do you know whether what the media is saying about Romney is true or not? He's dug himself a pretty deep hole and it IS going to take a stellar performance at the debates to dig himself out of it.
