It was a draw. Romney would have won of Candy didn't cut him off nearly every question yet let Obama have all the time he wanted.

The Libya question was a mess for Romney, that might have titled things slightly in Obama's favor. That said, I don't see this debate having much of an impact on the race since both candidates had strong performances.

I wonder if Romney is crying in Ann's lap on their limo ride to their hotel.

What do you expect from an instant click poll on a right wing blog, LOL! I bet you can vote as many times as you like if you delete cookies between votes. I think it's amazing that Obama got 30% there, because I find it highly doubtful that 30% of their readers are democrats.

You guys crack me up.

Good point. But we both know that won't happen.

So the President told us he is Pro illegal ("They just want to feed their families)and wants more gun control while on the latter Romney differentiated between automatic firearms (which is one of the definitions of an Assault Rifle) and other firearms that just look like them and are not Assault rifles.

The misleading terms used are to confuse many that are not familiar.

While Obama spoke of the illegals he talked of their wants and needs but didn't talk about them not being Americans nor following the path of legal entry.

Just who does he represent?

I didn't watch it but you most likely summed up about every presidential debate in history. Bunch of BS talking point and memorized answers to questions they already know are coming. Yippee. Now the talking heads will run around screaming how their guy won. Glad I wasted my time watching the ballgame. lol

I am guessing this is the challenge any incumbent faces but there was no clear victory here. I give the edge to Romney but figure it will be pretty even all in all.
I agree Both made good points and were weak in others. Neither one of these people is perfect and I don't know that either will be able to fix what's wrong in this country. Just take a look at this thread and start there. Such anger. Name calling, slurs and personal attacks. The debate was more civil than this thread.
