Obama: If people read transcript, they’ll think I won last debate (Narcissist in Chief)
Washington Examiner ^ | October 13, 2012 | Joel Gehrke

President Obama told a Miami radio host yesterday that he never thought, during last week’s presidential debate, that Mitt Romney got the better of him.

“That’s not actually how I thought about it,” Obama said on the Michael YO! Show when asked if there was a moment when he knew he was losing last week. “I do think that on television it was clear that I was being too restrained when Mr. Romney was telling his tall tales. But the truth is, when you read the transcript, everything I said was true and a lot of what he said was not.”

Obama did concede that he “had an off-night” and explained that he was “too polite” to bring up Romney’s 47 percent remarks.

“It is a useful reminder, though, that the news media’s attention span is fairly short,” he said of the fact that the 47 percent comments didn’t come up in the debate.

Obama also talked about his earliest experience in the private sector. “My first job was at Baskin Robbins and it paid minimum wage,” he said. “I don’t know what minimum wage was back then — it was probably three bucks an hour.”

The show began with Obama weighing in on the Mariah Carey-Nicki Minaj feud on American Idol, saying that between the two, he prefers Mariah Carey. “Mariah — she’s actually done some events for us,” Obama said. “Nicki, I don’t know, but I’ve got her on my iPod.”

No word on whether his iPod contains the song in which Minaj says “I’m a Republican voting for Mitt Romney.”

Obama: If people read transcript, they’ll think I won last debate

Now he thinks he's Dick Nixon.

I sure hope Romney makes a fool of him again on Tuesday. He won’t though, because the debate will be fixed.

I’ll bet debate prep is a barrel of laughs for the short-straw-holder who gets to ‘correct’ The One on his mistakes.

Boy Obama keeps looking for excuses and hoping one will work. To say he was being to nice is an even bigger joke.

He's good at saying nasty things behind people's backs or in front of the morons. He just can't say it to someones face. He's a coward.

every time I think he’s hit the bottom of the barrel, he goes even lower. It’s obvious he’s more upset at the debate loss than he ever was over the deaths of our Ambassador & the other brave souls in Benghazi — disgraceful!

He won in his own mind. Even Mr. Tingles thought he lost. It’s good to know that although he has no time for intelligence briefing he can still find time to meet with Pimp with a Limp and Michael Yo. Apparently he has time to watch American Idol.
Or maybe his intelligence advisors have told him to come down on the Mariah side of the Carey-Minaj feud. Reelect this clown. He is the only one who can save Elmo. We will go down a road with more than a few bumps but it will be exciting. “In my first term, I sang Al Green; in my second term, I’m going with Young Jeezy.”

What did they do? Switch the names around in them? Or did they just type in what Obama really wanted to say. Not what he actually said?

Still not a good thing for Obama. Most of his supporters can't read.
