UCANSEE2 ~ Note that Romney listens to Obama and keeps his eyes on him while Obama talks.

pops88 ~ I don’t like Romney, but good grief, he’s powned Obozo. It’s down right painful watching the debate.

Not to worry, the NYT will give a glowing report on well Obama did, and how poor a performance Mitt gave, including little snipes at how he glared at Obama...

Good compare and contrast in Romney's closing statement. Thought I could see Obama say to Romney "you won" when they shook hands. That could not be, could it?

HUGE difference from McCain’s performance 4 years ago.

Solid win for Romney.

Obama spent too much time uuhhhing and phumphering for the right word. He looked completely unprepared.

Unlike some, I thought Jim Leher wasn't bad at all, for a lib. He tried to keep things under control. He interrupted Romney more, because Romney had more to say. Obama longed for a teleprompter when he ran out of cliches to loft at us.

that’s why I have had an ID for years after getting locked out in 2000. Course, I can’t respond or I get zapped. Maybe I will go take a look.

MITT ROMNEY...NOT only Looks Presidential! He is Speaking Like a Real Servant-Leader!

I Prayed all day long....Please Dear LORD, Give Mitt Romney The Words to Speak and The Words to Get through to those who are UNDECIDED.

In My Humble Opinion...Mitt Romney wiped the Libral Smirk Off Of Barack HUSSEIN Obama's LYING FACE!

This is Simcha 7 and I APPROVE This MESSAGE!

Enjoyed reading the various posts on this thread tonite while I was watching the debate and helping my 14 yr old write a report on the debate for her history class.

Was already a Romney voter; loved how he handled the debate! Obama looked nervous, didn’t look at Romney, and wandered in his responses. Romney presented facts, had “fire” and was upbeat and positive. GO ROMNEY/RYAN!!! And God Bless America—and thanks Freerepublic!

Obama sounded like maa-maaa-maaa-maaa-maax headroom!

Interesting that the Romneys brought their kids and grandkids with them, and Sasha & Malia Obama are nowhere to be seen.

OBAMA FLED THE SET and left Romney to take a curtain call with his family.

AMAZING!!! Obama couldn’t get out of there fast enough!

Wow...this did not go well for the president.

Romney does appear confident, while Obama appears flustered.

Or as WaPo will say tomorrow:

Mitt looked arrogant, while Obama seemed deeply concerned about the plight of the people...

Chris Matthews and Ed Schultz very upset that Romney clearly won.

Romney. Kicked. Ass. He was on target, keep that old lib Lehrer in line about his right to respond, and was extremely articulate.

Can’t believe their next debate is in Obama phone territory in Long Island.

Ed Schultz and Tingles Matthews are criticizing obama’s performance and saying he lost. Tingles is almost screaming!

Al Sharpton, as to be expected, is accusing Romney’s comments as being racist.
