President Obama and Mitt Romney meet for the first of three presidential debates starting at 9pm ET from the University of Denver. The 90-minute debate will be moderated by Jim Lehrer. C-SPAN Live coverage begins at 7pm ET.
What time do they start? (Eastern time)
start time and channel?
Thanks Dawg.
Yippie-Ki-Yay.........
9:30 - I hope Romney goes for the jugular.
Has George Snuffelupigus declared Obama the winner yet? After all, the debate starts in less than two hours...I imagine he will say Obama has the charisma, knowledge of the facts, and just the “presence” needed to be just that little bit more than human.
I worship they, I give the thanks, most especially for Flip Wilson’s Obama fone. Alleluia.
what time zone?
7pm
8 here in Texas
Look for Romney to hand Obama his rear-end tonight.
OK y’all ... there’s 2 hrs yet ... y’think we can keep the preliminary comments to under 500 ?
If Mitt is asked about the controversial Obama video, he should simply reply “I don’t care what my opponent said six years ago, I care about what he’s done over the last four.” Debate over.
Thanks!
He should declare him the winner. An NPR poll has obama (small o, it’s intentional) up 7. (snort)
6 o’clock PST
Channels on COX Cable: MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, FOX, PBS, CNBC, Telemundo, probably all your local stations.
I don’t doubt a few will come out of the woodwork.
Thanks for starting this. I cannot BEAR to watch 0bama, so I’m just going to play a drinking game and talk smart here tonight, LOL!
BMFLR!
I’m here.
Thanks for starting the thread.
“Look for Romney to hand Obama his rear-end tonight.”
I am counting on it! Don’t let us down, Mitt! Keep to the FACTS and keep pounding them home! :)
I swore on my mothers grave, the day he was elected, I’d never look at him, watch him or listen to him.
I’m proud to say, I’ve kept my promise.
That said, here in Florida, it seems every other commercial is an obama commercial. If he was winning Florida, he’d spend his money elsewhere. The amount he’s spending here leads me to believe the polls are full of crap.
If Mitt is asked about the controversial Obama video, he should simply reply..
"In Mr. Obama's defense, the video doesn't seem like the same person we see speaking to the nation as a whole - or here tonight."
Has Chris Mathews declared Obama the winner yet?
Obama campaign advises supporters on debate talking points and spin in advance of Debate
Between The Leftist and The Leftist, The Leftist will win tonight’s debate.
8 p.m. our time on MSNBC. I am ready. I think.
I have a feeling 0bama is due an “oops” moment. It’s even more likely if Romney gets under his skin.
Paging Mitt.... goal no.1 - piss 0bama off.

Good luck, FReepers. I’m not going to watch tonight. I can’t stand listening to Obama’s lying mouth or watching his smug, condescending, lying face. I will check in on this live thread to see how it goes! I hope Governor Romney calls out some of Obama’s blatant lies. If he plays it safe, he’s gonna lose. Obama is a shameless liar and will lie through his teeth nonstop. This will be his strategy to keep Romney off message.
Like I said, you all are better people than me. I just don’t know how anyone could subject themselves to listening to this anti-American race baiter spew lies through his piehole all night. I’d end up breaking my TV if I watched.
Leaving work a bit ago, ran into the owner of my company and asked him if he was watching the big show tonight. He despises the man and he put his finger in his mouth doing the gagging motion. I can only imagine what all the small business owners in this country are thinking right now, about the future of their companies should Soetero the commie get re-elected.
Chris Matthews tingle-alert.
The polls are totally full of crap. He’s goin’ DOWN. Happy, Happy! :)
Woot! Ready to rock, and be told we lost by the MSM? LOL
Come on Romney be tough and tie that bastard’s bad policies AND HIS LEFTEST PHILOSOPHY TO THE PROBLEMS we’re having.
Don’t say O is a nice guy. Bah.
It starts at 9:00 PM est. according to DirectTV channel guide.
Wasn’t it Sun Tzu who said in the Art of War - Irritate your opponent??
I may be mistaken. At my age I forgot what I had for lunch..:(
But, C-SPAN is the best choice to watch the debate, on TV and online.
Thank you for this...
Not watching....will let you guys then will read your analysis...
God bless you for this service....rock on!
Unfortunately I’m stuck here at work until after 11, so I’ll have to check out the recaps and either catch a rerun on C-SPAN or find it online.
Yes. And forget those “zingers” the news was reporting that the Romney camp had supplied him with. NO zingers please Mitt.

Nice thing about FR...some will actually watch the debate so the rest of us don’t have to...we appreciate your sacrifice.

Now this should be interesting.....who puts the lie detectors on lie detectors?
Good evening everyone. Nice to see your smiling faces. 9PM EDST. Popcorn is popped.
I’m not sure, as I haven’t read the whole thing. This excerpt is interesting however.
“You must pretend inferiority
And encourage your enemy’s arrogance”
