2. I thought that was an obvious opportunity. Maybe he's saving it.

3. It pisses me off, too...
They should nail him on that constantly. Major ads in all the battlegrounds.

6. He ran out of time--it was at the very end of the debate.
I hope it comes up again at the beginning of the next debate--THEN Obama can nail him!!!

10. There were a couple of times prior to the finale that he could have jumped in.

8. That was a frustrating moment.
Really the only major gaff Obama made, imo.

12. He didn't have a chance to get a word out

14. I was wondering that too but Biden mentioned it on Olberman tonight.
In fact Biden hit basically every point that I thought Obama missed.

16. I think that this will come soon......
No need to empty your whole wad in one sitting.

Plus, he's having us talk about it.

You'll see....he'll raise it in his rallies and such.....
it will be a work of art! ;)
