I see Free Republic is getting a DDOS attack.


Mitt Romney is speaking, and “Obama” is listening in his ear and speaking.

I don’t believe I’m wrong. Look at how “Obama” hesitates between words and phrases and looks down like he’s listening. That guy is seriously on the ropes with his micro-ear speaker.

Romney (the globalist, liberal-lite) is obliterating this lying commie punk. “Thank you for tuning in,” he said in opening his last statement to “Obama”!

Even MSNBC is apparently admitting that Romney smoked Obama. This is so AWESOME! :D

watching ABC...

george crapalosoolous reluctantly giving Romney credit- claims no knockout punch but Romney was on top...

Dowd- likens it to the first debate of ‘04; romney came into win and obama for a draw- Romney wins...

Sawyer- she was startled that as she thought Dowd thought the debate was a draw...she thought Romney won...

Brazil- Romney did himself a lot of good tonight....tonight mitt romney was more aggressive...stumbles trying to defend obozo..

Goolsby- obama taken aback by Romney giving specifics...

Wallace- Republicans were depressed until 9:48 tonight...Republicans now believe they have a candidate who can and will win...specific answers on the role of gvo’t...Republicans overjoyed...obozo failed by trying to tie obamacare to romney care..

Will- agreed with Christie saying this debate will change narrative of election, Romney stopped any perceived bleeding..loved his closing statement...

Tapper- obama was listless and flat ala 2007...obama aides and staff admitted to Tapper that Romney was crisper, sharper and a much better performance...

Hissy Chrissy Matthews is GOING TOTALLY NUTS!!

Excoriates Obama’s performance, and blames Lehrer for not controlling the exchanges.

Total MELTDOWN!!

cBS proffered an excuse for Bam. The Republican candidates had 50 hours of debates in their Primaries.

Total meltdown on PMSNBC. Chrissy Matthews is coming to the realization that Obama is an incompetent amateur.

Network television/cable and their news media are irrelevant dinosaurs and it shows.

Did Brit mean that Barry’s “game” is to be a mumbling idiot who does not have the capacity to be the leader of the free world? Okay. That works. Obama has the loser thing down.

Of for the love of Pete...Brit says that Barry was not off his game!

Barry was not off his game. This is just the way he is when he doesn't have a teleprompter and a pre-written speech being given to people who adore him. This is normal for him, not off. He has always been awful when he doesn't have the words written out for him.

Switched over immediately after conclusion to NBC. First out of the gate was Chuck Todd.

The crestfallen look was priceless. Looked like his puppy was rolled over by 100 steamrollers. PRICELESS!

  1. Before tonight I felt no real enthusiasm for Romney. Now I’m feeling the beginning of enthusiasm rising up in my belly.
  2. Obama’s clock will keep perfect time after this cleaning.
  3. Romney will govern like Bush, not like Reagan, and that means that leadership must come from the Tea Party in Congress.
