Two Things About the Debate I Haven't Heard or Seen Anyone Address
vanity

The pundits continue to opine upon last night's debate, the Romney supporters continue to bask, and the 0bama minions continue to spin - some of them out of control. But with all of the rhetoric, there are two things I haven't seen or heard addressed.


TOPICS: Your Opinion/Questions
KEYWORDS:
With all of the rhetoric, there are two things I haven't seen or heard addressed.

1. The way 0bama lectured and talked down to the moderator - truly showing his superior attitude toward those who would try to tell "him" what to do or not do. Yes, Romney tried to inject some responses to some of 0bama's lies, but he was respectful about it.

2. The way 0bama tried to take control, but Romney put 0bama in his place when he told him "That was not a question!" As 0bama thinks back about it, he has to be kicking the dog. But, to me, this shows the stature of a true leader - he can take control when the situation warrants - even over the POTUS.

Also, Romney should never have asked Zero a question. Never give up any of your time to a stumble bum like Obama who will waste all your time with “uh, I...uh...”

I would like to see the clip where Obama says something, and Romney sends him “back to his chair, tail between his legs”. Can’t remember what part that was.

I thought his use of questions was effective - he didn't lose control of the situation and he knew what the "real" answer was, so he couldn't get blind-sided.

Watch the Luntz focus group of Obama voters and undecided which he ran for Hannity. Unbelievable, if you haven’t seen it, watch it and it will blow you away.

I LOVED the part where Romney pressed Obama again and again on his lies about oil drilling.

Beautiful performance.

Obama never even opened with the typical salutations to the moderator, audience and to his opponent.

No thank you for your question, either.

Obama has all the sophistication of Kenye West

During Romney’s final segment, as he was speaking, Hussein started talking VERY LOUDLY and ARROGANTLY to Alice-Star Crowley.

It was incredibly lowclass and rude; I presume he learned that from Joe Bidem.

Either Obama has no class or he has been hanging around with AXLERODS too much.

Big mistake on Obama's part. I noticed that as well, and am sure most people also took note. Either he's a crass jerk, or his head was spinning from overload cramming for the debate... probably both.

I have a dumb question- did they shake hands at the end? Did their families interact? Biden’s and Ryan’s families seemed very friendly to each other.

I believe that that behavior is a standard tactic when liberals are losing a debate or argument.

I’m all in for Romney, but one of the funniest odd things in Ryan Biden debate was when Ryan said “Mitt Romney is a car guy” then proceeds to tell a horrible story about a car wreck. Made no sense.

At one point, Romney made a reference to being defeated by John McCain in 2008. Added nothing to the conversation except a negative on himself. No No!

Actually I thought Romney's question to Zero, demanding that Zero re-affirm his claim about his Rose Garden speech, had a brilliant result.

I know that is not the conventional wisdom. But the long moment of frozen fear on Obama's face, finally broken by a shakily voiced "Proceed, governor," was absolutely priceless.

Good 2 questions. I’ll add one more. Can anybody explain where Obama got that new, high-pitched voice we heard for the first time last night? It was certainly a radical change from the “deep baritone”, sonorous voice we’re accustomed to hearing that made Obama sound like the “voice-over” in a sleep aid commercial. Also, Obama’s tendency to hide under women’s skirts when the going gets rough is something we’re accustomed to, what with him hiding under his “beard’s” skirt to validate his masculinity, and Hillary’s skirt on Benghazi, and that Raddatz women’s skirt by protecting the buffoon, Biden. But, hiding under women’s skirts is a stinky affair from the get-go. And, hiding under Crowley’s skirt is beyond the pale.

I have heard nothing on when DumBO stated the State Department works for me, and I sent them to their duty.

Crowley, the feminazi poster girl, did not let Romney respond when ZerO took exception to criticism that he does not care about people in harms way, an obvious lie.
