Presidential Debate Reaction Post

Feel free to live blog the debate here!

Also...what time is it supposed to start? 9:00 EST/6:00 PST? I have to run to the store on my way home (leaving now) and I'm afraid I'm going to miss it this round! D:

Oh thank heavens, it's over.

Obama: "It's all Bush's fault. Romney is just like Bush. He wants to keep life unfair. I want to grow the public sector and unions. Let's kill oil and natural gas. I want to tax the wealthy into poverty. I'm lying to you about how much I love the military, but by heavens I'll make all our roads better!""

Does Obama think we're so stupid that we don't see beyond his lies and rehearsed speeches?

Pretty sure he does.

I met a young woman in Philadelphia . . . I was going to say that'd make a good limerick, but it wouldn't quite scan.

Sorry, getting punchy.

Eh, that's what happens when debates start at 9pm....

He will always listen to our voices? Then why are so many of us SUING your government for throwing our religious liberties under the bus!?!?!?!

He'll listen so long as we're members of SEIU or drink the Obama Kool-Aid.

Also why does Obama call being President a "privilege?" Everyone knows he and Michelle O hate their positions.

Roads. And. Damn. Bridges.

I swear I'm going to throw something.

Bottom line: Ann Romney is going to be a fabulous First Lady.

And when she does go to Spain, she'll actually pay for it herself.

Imagine.

She's been a top-class lady at every appearance.

A binder in the shot! Binders full of women! Bias!

jk

I like the fact that Romney mentioned working with "good Democrats and good Republicans" in DC, because there are a lot of BAD Dems and Repubs in Congress.

Phew!!! Less than 2 weeks left...

I love following you guys' live responses.

Wow... this really sucked. Schiffer didn't totally suck, but I.... feel dirty by all the whole thing.

Okay, then. I'm ready to vote now.

Okay, this debate was my favorite. The mod wasn't an irritating jerk, Obama showed up but still got shown up by Romney just being better, and Romney got to end it on patriotic warm fuzzies.

Good summary.

I liked Mrs. Obama's dress. I am a sucker for lace.

I agree.

Okay, I gotta get to sleep, but good chatting with everyone.

Hoping For A Change!!!!!!

Wow. Romney only lost a minute, this time, according to Bret Brier. Amazing.

This was fun, y'all! Looking forward to November (and the fact that it'll be over soon).

And after the election, I hope not to do anything with politics for a long time. I didn't do it, last time, but I really will, this time.

Mary Katherine Ham:

"MSNBC is talking about Romney's right flank and "racial hatred" instead of trumpeting an Obama win. Maybe Romney did beat him."

As per MSNBC's fine standard.

"Soledad O’Brien was just interviewing the CNN undecided voter focus group. She asked them (quoting from memory): “How many of you changed your mind based upon tonight’s debate.” A whole bunch of hands went up. But — and this is not a joke — O’Brien refused to ask them who they’d would vote for because voting is a “private matter.”

"I’m not making this up."

Well done, Soledad. Well done.
