3rd Presidential Debate (Please see MOD COMMENT post #175)

Carcharodon

I think Obama is clearly winning this debate so far, even the most partisan right wingers will have to admit this. He was always at an advantage due to his 4 years of experience dealing with foreign policy on a day to day and is exposing Romney of having a lack of knowledge and understanding, and of just throwing out broad statements that really dont hold up.

This is getting hard to watch.

Romney going double Israel here.

It really is. I actually feel bad for Romney and I can't stand the man.

happyclapper

Also its like a child being scolded by their parents.. When Romney gets called out on his "whoppers" he starts getting personal.

MadsL

I look around the world...


i went to London and pissed them off about the Olympics

Side Show Bob

Romney is murdering himself!

jimmyjon

I love how Romney can just vaguely list things that are wrong with the world and implicitly hint that it's all Obama's fault.

Mitt looks like he's thinking of the glorious lily white heaven he will enter on the planet Kolob when he dies.

ProudDUB

Ha ! Obama closing in for the kill now !

As someone who returned to her former home town of Atlanta, GA last week, to happily punch her hanging chad in President Obama's favour, it really isn't.

Oh nooo, Mitt just thew the toys out of the pram.

Great bit of moderation there to shut Romney up.

Even Eamon Gilmore could win here!

I couldn't understand half of what Romney said about Afghanistan/Pakistan. I think he's pretty much totally agreeing with the current policy but attempting to pad out around it.

Cenk Uygur Obama: I didn't go to fundraiser in Israel. I went to Holocaust Museum. Starting to feel sorry for Romney. #current2012 #debates

Obama twists the knife.

Is Obama's seat wet from when Ryan sat there?

Romney wouldn't lose any sleep, sending ground troops into harms way, Obama sees it as a last resort, quite rightly.

It really is. Romney is really rattled. He's not comfortable on FP at all. You can see he's been stuffed with information but he doesn't fully grasp it all. In fairness Obama has a great advantage in terms of knowledge but still.

It'll be interesting to see how the boys over at Fox News spin this one. I predict a mixture of "biased moderator" and "Romney was restrained and dignified".

Obama hits Romney on Chinese oil company and Iran.

Romney said his ultimate BubbleFact, "Apology Tour" right in front of the guy who NEVER WENT ON ONE!!

Obama on Romney's understanding of defense: "Yes, we have fewer ships than we had in 1916. We also have fewer horses and bayonettes."

Now Romneys saying that government doesn't create jobs, but he will create 12 million jobs ( which are predicted regardless who is POTUS) if he's elected? Come again?

Romney will be able to take on Iran, China, Russia, Syria and who knows who else, with his extra $2 Trillion for the DOD.

He should be nicknamed Bombney!
