Nope Romney started. I re-watched it today. Romney was the first one to start asking Obama direct questions, even though that was against the debate rules. And he was the first to point to obama and start talking about him and to him in a "tone". That was only when Obama started to fight back, but Obama was respectful to Romney(at first), and he attempted(and tried hard) to remain respectful even when Romney was not respectful back. You could tell by the nonverbal cues that Obama was trying hard to keep civil.

In the end of the debate he wouldn't shake Obama's hand. That was beyond rude and a sore loser. Yes Obama does work for us and respect if two way. But the disrespect started with Romney and it extended way beyond what should have been. It should have been a debate, heated at times, but civil throughout, Romney made it so that it was not that way. Now you can pretend that Obama started, but anyone who watched the debates knows what REALLY happened.

The Republican logic is amazing; we know Romney is not really a Conservative, he is a Mormon, not a "real Christian" in our eyes but as long as he is not Obama, we will support him

I have a Republican friend who doesn't even like Romney but she is working for his campaign- like most of the morons out there who can't think beyond their partisan lines- I guess, as long as he is not Obama, he is good enough for us.

Unless there is a fundamental change in our society, we are headed downhill, FAST!
The Democratic "logic" is even more amazing... they actually believed the "hope and change" baloney!

The polls show that it was obama and crowley who were disrespectful. Romney is going to be our next president. Last night cinched it.

Will "binders full of women" be voting for Romney?

I thought "Mitty, you stupid jackass...." was a bit disrespectful.

Pretty much anybody would be better then President Obama.

Why do so many here seem to want to continue the same FAILED policies that President Obama has enacted that got us into this mess in the first place?

How come none of the liberals here seem to want to talk about President Obama's record - instead they go on and on about Paul Ryan washing dishes or Mitt Romney's using "cook" and "women" in the same sentence?

I have never seen the supporters of a presidential candidate so unwilling to talk about their candidates record, or deflect so often to irrelevant trivialities concerning the opponents.

Why is that? Could it be because his record is so negative that the only hope they have is to make people forget about it?

I think Obama was rude. Obama is so arrogant and he kept interupting.
Biden was rude too.
