1. No. Absolutely not.

People will forget the debate. This is a real result, and Obama's going to have a chance to rectify this mistake--but another bad jobs report could have hurt him going down the stretch. The last one will come in the four days before the election, when most people have already made up their minds.

2. It would have been great to have both

Its not really a case of being required to have one or the other.

3. No way. A President shouldn't govern selfishly. It's about our Nation, not political points.

Which ironically, a drop in unemployment equals good political points.

4. Drop in unemployment is way

more important than a great debate.

5. I would have liked both

but I'll admit that it's a lot of fun to see such assholes of grandeur like Neutron Jack Welch go off the deep end into conspiracy theories.

6. Yes. The President has two more debates. The 7.8% number is fixed through election day. nt

8. The debate was boring, and just more promises, promises. The 7.8% rate is an actual result!
