I seem to remember an article a while ago that the admin was indeed using the Obamaphones to relay ‘important text messages to the ‘owners’ of said phones.

That's yet another dark hearted trick that Obama can be called out for - among what - hundreds? Talk about a target-rich environment.

If I were debating Obama, I wouldn't know where to start.

I'm just too damn pleased watching someone body slam Obama to the mat for a change. I can't help being tickled as hell.

And that's how we'll feel if Obama is kicked to the curb on November 7th. Vote to have fun. Vote to foreclose on Obama's White House. Vote Romney/Ryan. Because watching the left's heads explode is just too darn fun.

In the year 2525...If man is still alive...

I would love to come back and see the history books they have. The Obama error...er I mean Era would take gigabytes to quantify.

It’s just so sad that we collectively allowed the destruction of America out of misplaced guilt and political correctness.

The next debate is on foreign policy and only foreign policy?

Thanks so much for the ping. Did you watch? I’m away and didn’t think I would be able to watch the debate. As it turned out, I watched but was engaged in so many conversational interruptions, I might have to watch again.

Delayed DVR, so I got a preview from the thread as to what to expect.

Romney, the grown-up. The look on his face most of the debate was as a patient father waiting for his immature, punkish son to finish his drunken, drugged excuses before father laid down some facts and wisdom.

Romney came prepared, did his homework, and means to be the next president.

Debate prep for Obama was “a drag,” skipped most of his debate “classes,” thought he could wing it like he does his stump speeches, and colossally underestimated Romney and underestimated the venue.

Yah, Zero went totally bite a persimmon sour puss during Mitt’s final. It was a joy to behold Dear Reader suck rocks for 90 seconds. Loser. He’ll just love his new Honolulu house we bought the asshat.

The headline of today’s Washington Examiner was (from memory, but close enough) “Romney needs a KO tonight.” If he didn’t get one here in the first debate, the coming debates wouldn’t have mattered. No one would have turned them on.

Foreign policy might even be uglier for O than tonight with the focus on economy. I only listened to the debate as background and the sound of Obama’s voice was stuttering and unsure. Pitiful.

I'm becoming a fan. He has been leaning right more and more. Perhaps the reality of the world today will ground him in conservative values.

Maybe his handlers really have been listening. Maybe even Mitt has. He's not in Massachusetts anymore. He's got to be responsive to what the majority of Americans need and want in a president.

If he really wants this job, he's also got to look at the peril our nation is in, and have the integrity to contemplate solutions that will honestly achieve concrete reforms. Those solutions are all conservative. There isn't a single liberal idea that's going to stop the nation from rolling toward the abyss.

Whatever liberal ideas he may have once entertained, will have to be cast to the wayside, if he wants to be a successful president.

Yes, the dem talking heads will try and spin it that way. Lets wait for the Rass polls on Saturday and Sunday to see the impact.

I hope this post "takes". I've tried unsuccessfully to post during the entire debate....couldn't even get past the "latest posts" page. I don't know when I've been more frustrated. I saw other posts appearing and sat in wonderment why I couldn't get on. Maybe Florida was out of the loop tonight.

At any rate, am I the only one who noticed Obama's creepy eyes tonight? Man, his pupils were all black and enlarged. All he needed was the black cape.

I wonder if he spent a sleepless night in a nervous tingle from Hannity's show.

It is really really funny watching the incompetence of the Obama campaign surrogates on display on the post Debate spin. They were so arrogantly certain of their man that they are out there mindlessly repeating the talking points they were given before the debate. It is painfully embarrassing to watch them fumble about trying to spin this disaster.

Feeling good? I took a hard south 30 mins before it began, which is how Mittens won, without my jinx, looks like good news so far.

Good news, Obama! . . . The “economy debate” is behind you! You’re golden with the “foreign policy debate” coming up . . .

I don't want to jinx anything, but I think the future narrative of Barack Obama began being written tonight. The MSM unspun before our very eyes. 60,000,000 Americans saw the naked emperor on their television screens, and as you know, what has been seen, cannot be unseen.

The styrofoam Greek columns have toppled to the floor, and those who erected them and held them in place these past four years, have been revealed as the black hearted liars they are. Who will believe them now? Who among them would be willing to write a glowing remembrance of the empty soul they've promoted to near godhood, now?

He's been rightfully shamed before the nation and the world tonight. From this point forward, he is deadly radioactive to all who've participated in his fraud and failure.

Do you have one?

And the wording or word is wrong - what’s ‘in President’? Shouldn’t it be in Presidency? Or keep him president?

I have long believed that once the ball gets rolling there will be no stopping it.

Being ex-media, I KNOW they love to eat their own or anyone else that proves appetizing.

But the GenPub just needs ‘guidance’ to tell them it’s OK to believe what most of them really do...and express it. That being Obama is a total fraud/disaster. Once (perhaps tonight?) this happens, it will landslide. And you are IMO totally correct. He will be radioactive. As was Carter for 2 decades. But Carter had far less of a problem to ‘rehab’.

Like in the story of the naked emperor, everyone knew but nobody dared say it.

If even Mitt Romney can look eminently acceptable in the face of Barack Obama, then Barack has had it.

Obama will probably bomb Iran after he bombs in the next debate.
