Depressed after the debate

Mitt Romney made $15,610.46 from investments in the time it took me to watch tonight's debate

calculated here : http://www.romneymakes.com

Was hoping for more of a fight from Obama. Romney got a away with too many visceral BS statements and Obama seemed to let them slide... maybe he's saving them for the next debate??? I hope so....

I don't think that the debate was the total devastation that some pundits on TV and DU posters think that it was, but I also don't think that President Obama did himself any favors tonight.

to be anything but conciliatory and 'follow the rules'. He truly brought a squirt gun to a knife fight.
