Romney with his red upper lip, his beady eyes tearing up, and the weird way

in which he acted like a 13 year old excited school girl (including his walk),
combined with his many reversals of his own proposed policies,
including many lies didn't do it for me....

For those who think he won, I'm glad that it did it for you.

I don't know how interrupting your opponent and talking over the moderator constitutes a win. He looked desperate and exasperated. He didn't appear confident. Obama looked like, "I can't believe the shit this guy is shoveling."

I know Obama isn't an aggressive man, and that is one of the things I love about his personality, but I do wish he could have just let it rip on Romney. Romney knows the president is cool in a crisis and Romney used that to bully.

Winning a debate isn't about talking over your opponent and disrespecting the debate rules. Romney thinks he doesn't have to play by the rules.

All he did was spew lies. He didn't win shit.

He was a condescending prick.

Not. Presidential. AT. ALL.

This is a big turn off for independents.
