That guy as a bitchy, vengeful, unaccountable lame duck for three months scares the piss out of me.

[morphing libertarian]

My fav was Brought to you by the letter O and the number 16 Trillion.

[Gator113]

Romney won.... Obama was very unimpressive.

[John W]

Four years ago they did have shots of the other candidate and he was grinding away as McCain laid him out flat. He probably didn’t allow those shots this time.

[thecodont]

Body language analysis?

BO: focused on himself.

Romney: focused on something outside himself.

[Mr. Binnacle]

MSNBC Saying that Romney went after Obama 8 times in jokes, but Obama only went after Romney 3 times - They said Romney was uncomfortable and unnerving.

Sissies.

[bluerose]

All very funny Mitt. Great job to whoever wrote those lines.
You’re better off now than 4 weeks ago, too funny and of course Mitt has his lovely wife to lean on and Obama has Bill Clinton.. I skipped through Obama’s speech.

[EDINVA]

WHY don’t they excommunicate Cuomo and all the other nominally Catholic pols who promote abortion?

[DAC21]

“I would almost swear Dennis Miller wrote Romney’s zingers”

HA! I said to myself the exact same thing.

[PghBaldy]

I missed the ovation at the beginning for Romney, but he seemed to do a better job (by far) and had much more rousing applause throughout. Obama was just OK, and I consider myself to be fair.

I don’t know. It will be the pre-season of basketball, right? and there will be a little vacation when the kids have winter break. Maybe Obama will not spend that much time in the office.

[tomkat]

fyi, from central PA   :-\

Turns to crap once it hits CA and CO:

[ETL]

Purely female reaction here: what a hunk!

Not necessarily...

[PghBaldy]

Does anyone find it odd that Michelle was not there? Serious question. Wouldn't a normal man say his wife was ill, or offer her apologies or something? What the heck?

[grey_whiskers]

Just watched it at one of the links upthread.

He did indeed say that.

Cheers!

[ETL]

I wonder if he’ll bring home a “doggy bag” for her. Did they serve Dog there?

[Sarah Barracuda]

This was the first time Ive seen Mitt tell jokes and OMG he is FUNNY. I didnt know he had that side to him..the jokes were HYSTERICALLY funny..the one about Seseme Street and how “Today’s number is the number 16 trillion” Mitt must listen to Mark Levin he came up with that one..Good job Mitt kudos!!

[CheneyChick]

I find it very odd that Michelle wasn’t there. Did anyone hear a reason why?
