Exactly this.

Mitt Romney has zero ability to be diplomatic. He proved that with his smirk-o-rama press conference to dance on the tragedy in Bengahzi before full information had come out.

Mitt Romney is a disrespectful dolt.

We need a chart that shows the percentage of CNN viewers who couldn't tell a debate from a bowling tournament.. It would be much more telling.

Well, actually, he probably spent those four minutes arguing with the moderator and trying to dictate the rules of the debate to her.

I think you're the "lone wolf" on this.

Our findings here echo those discussed in a prior post that Republicans have moved further to the right than Democrats to the left in the contemporary period. Indeed, as seen below, President Obama is the most moderate Democratic president since the end of World War II, while President George W. Bush was the most conservative president in the post-war era.

Any blog or study that shows George W Bush as the most conservative president since WW2 is a joke. Bush increased federal spending and programs more then any president outside of Obama, and most of that money did not go to the military.

BTW, Obama never answered the question of "what happened to the protection of our ambassador?" He cleverly spun what he is going to do, without actually addressing the reason why it happened.

I agree.
Who chooses these moderators? The moderators should be neutral for both parties and not personal friends of either candidate.

Nixon taught me well...I've felt that way about every GOP president since that corrupt liar.

Even a Republican like me has to admit that is worth a giggle or two.

As long as you believe that maybe it will give you peace. Good luck with that.

IMO, Romney was absolutely exposed tonight for being a flip flopping liar. Total sellout.

Ron Paul won the debate tonight
