And Obama has been a GREAT president since the day he took office.
It didn't go un-noticed that Obama did not bring up his past record one time.

Any poly tic who actually does something, can never stop babbling about it, and Obama has done exactly zilch.... it's safe to say you can say good by to him in Nov.

I know i won't miss umm umm errr errr ahh ahh (looks up)

He didn't do a lot of looking up last night though. HE LOST and he knew it!

Always was a loser wasn't he.......

Agreed but shallow would describe many Americans so anything is possible.

Cardboard cutout? You just described virtually all politicians, including Obama.

It sounds like you didn't even watch the debate. While I don't see a repeat of the dismal performance by Obama on the next one, what is going to be your excuse if he is walked all over again?

At least you didn't try to skew the poll for romney. But lets be serious you would never vote for a black guy.

Probably you are right in the changed were from people who plain up were not going to vote either way.... And now they will for Romney..... I am one of them.

This poll is also too small to be of any use. In fact it was set up to be positive to Obama, but it won't be.

Romney handed Obama his own azz last night and then he spanked it on National tv....

I liked how that first media gal in the red dress tried to imply Obama had done well in his talking points LOL.

Oh BOY was she ever wrong.

Hey Edward. Just wanted to let you know that it appears someone hacked your account and posted saying that you are voting for President Obama.

Or, far more likely, people who hope that the debate will change minds will claim that their own minds were changed.
