Great point on Obama’s abysmal performance shooting for the Olympics in Chicago and most of his contact with foreign leaders has been very similar.

Based on Romney's experience and Obama's record I don't see Romney at a disadvantage in this debate. Romney doesn't have direct experience in foreign policy but he has been doing analysis of complex real-world matters since Barry was back hanging with the choom gang. His team has had plenty of time to digest the information now available on developments in Libya. Obama has to defend failure. Romney just has to point out the failure and present a reasonable alternative course. I have heard the incumbent has an advantage on foreign policy simply because he has been doing it for four years. Obama is an exception to that rule because he has been screwing things up for four years.

My prediction: Romney by three touchdowns, with continued improvement in the polls.

I’m guessing interrupting Romney will be the biggest Team Obama ploy tonight, championed by the “moderator”.

Every word from Romney the enemy can squelch is perceived a victory by them.

Your lips to Gods ears.

I'm with you on it because as you say, his foreign policy is an exception to sitting presidents. I doubt he could have done a much worse job and it's a reflection on the idiots he's surrounded himself with.

"Great point on Obama’s abysmal performance shooting for the Olympics in Chicago and most of his contact with foreign leaders has been very similar."

Thank you. Watching the President who hates American culture, destroy any possibility that Chicago could get the 2016 Olympics, was a very memorable moment--not a proud or happy moment, but surely a memorable one.

It actually perfectly captured the Obamanist mindset, however. He compared the Olympic Committee to the people of the Chicago Southside slums by their physical appearance; so deeply into his Class-Warfare assumptions that he did not realize that he was insulting people of accomplishments who would not appreciate being compared to Welfare dependent slum dwellers.

Obama, in his own way, is just as befuddled as Chris Matthews, Nancy Pelosi, and other media & political airheads.

Since you’re referring to the Left, the word “delusion” might be a better choice than “perception”. They are certainly deluded if they think the current and general perception of American foreign policy is a positive one. Or should I say “not optimal”?

Did I say Romney by three touchdowns? I guess it was more like a couple field goals. But he covered the spread.
