Where was the comment on republican obstruction ?

So many opportunities to label Romney an outright liar, so many opportunities simply left lying there. So it seems like a loss, but you're right. He simply failed to win what should have been a pretty big win. But it's not a loss.
Thanks for being the voice of reason. 
but they were never going to vote Obama anyway, so they can go take a flying fuck at a rolling donut.
There are a million low information voters. The Prez did not do enough to call out the lies. I keep hearing "well the President can't do that, refute a list of lies." He doesn't have to do it like that. All he as to do is refute the biggest lie.
When you don't refute lies, or you accept the premise of lies, it looks like you validated the lie as a legit POV, this is what the President did, he let Romney's bullshit seem legit.
Here's how you accept a premise of a lie making it seem legit.
Romney says "A" (a lie)
Obama says "B"
a talking point)
Romney say "-b, a" calling the Prez a liar and then repeating the lie.)
Obama "B"
Any ignorant voter watching this is going to think that both sides have legit points. And since Romney took it to President, and the President didn't take it to Romney, therefor Romney has the stronger positions, policy, and views. Voters will decide on the validity of a position both on what a candidate says and on the feedback of the opponent. When the opponent gives weak feedback, it makes the candidate's statements seem stronger.
I am not sure if most here understand this. Romney won this debate, or I should say the President lost it, since there was many hanging curves he let go over the plate. Good news is that debates are not the end all, and Rmoney still has major problems.
This is the last post I am going to argue about this. Time to move on.
The player was the player and the adult was the adult. 
glad we agree
to tell you the stuff you can't figure out for yourself
I heard a "news" report (on an a.m. radio station) on the way home from work ... and one "news" report got me to thinking ...
The "news" reporter quoted a gop strategist saying that the debate was an absolute necessary win for romney and that romney's performance spoke volumes to the gop moneymen ... had romney bombed (or did not perform well) the moneymen would have shifted their romoney to other, down-ticket races.
Imagine ... If that's true ... a poor performance leading to gop money going to other races, romney's performance just might have been good enough to help Democrats hold the Senate and take back the House.
