I’m a Leo too:) (as a Christian, just don’t put much credence in astrology). But your analysis sounds right anyway.

The ever present skepticism in me wants to say that Obama sandbagged this debate so that at each debate, he could improve to the point so that at the last debate, everyone declares him a winner. Romney better be prepared for this...Keep doing what he is doing, but become more agressive, and don’t lay down. Democrats are crafty, and are unscrupulous...they will have a strategy to try to overcome this...

“MSNBC said that Obama got four minutes more time from Lerher than Romney.”

CNN registered voters:
Who won the debate? Romney 67% Obama 25%
Who was most likable Romney 46% Obama 45%

Which proves that the more Obama talks the less he is liked and respected.

The Boston Globe Turd calls it a draw, with Obama being “professorial” and “thoughtful.” LOLLOL!

Obama did not sandbag. No way. He got his butt kicked. Plus, his ego is so big he could not sandbag.

Looks like his affirmative action days are over.

It was beautiful to watch, wasn’t it? Someone needed to hand Chris Matthews a puppy.

and think you’re both absolutely RIGHT! I love that about myself!

Thank you for the response.

I have found that the only time I learn something new, is when I find out I am wrong. Besides, it's not whether I am right, or you are, it's WHAT is right, which I know is what you meant.

God put the stars in the sky for seasons and signs.

I rarely read my horoscope because it always generalized garbage but if you met me and didn’t know me, odds are you’d soon think “Oh no...a *Leo*!”....LOL

I have the good traits...which means I endeavor to keep my desire to rule the world to myself.

;D

[if you can get hold of a copy of The Companion Bible, there’s a very fascinating section which aligns the signs of the horoscope with the entire life and return of The Christ. fascinating stuff, really]

Mainly because Lehrer did a remarkably good job of moderating.

Purely by accident. He couldn't get a word in edgewise. Less moderator = better debate.

Tweet from David Gregory:

“The president lacked fight tonight. Deliberate ?”

Yeah, David, you stasi idiot, the president deliberately sabotaged his own campaign and planned on winning only 25% of those watching the debate.

The arrogant communist was not able to stick his nose in the air and had to keep his head down for most of the debate.

He was doodling on a piece of paper.

Obama doesn’t care. We need to understand this. He’s not really that concerned with winning. He’s set for life. Has his own Island (Hawaii). His job was to allow total corruption of the government so that the new Socialist World Order can be established. Whether he wins or loses, he completed his task.

Spot on. This explains the empty chair. The only thing Obama is truly interested in now is basking in adulation by the masses. His "work" is done.

The incumbent has now proven that his debating skills are on a par with his POTUS skills... ‘bumbling, inept, incompetent and light years out of his league.’

“Obama was having micro sleeps. I know quite well because I get them too sometimes. It’s the body’s way of saying “need. sleep. now.”

I was just telling my sister a little while ago, that I think Obama did a line of Coke before going onstage, in order to stay awake. He looked sleep deprived (probably stayed up all night worrying) and red-eyed. Bet he left the stage quickly so he could get back to the hotel and crash.
