Obama came in to the white house after a 8 year frat party and had to clean up, and mitt is just attacking him for trying to clean up and make the usa better. He should change it because people are catching on, we get it he wants to get jobs going... but how?

CLIMATE CHANGE NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT UP. BIGGEST ISSUE THERE IS TO THE SECURITY OF THIS NATION ( AND BY THAT I MEAN SKIERS AND THE GENERAL POPULATION AS WELL). POLITICS SUCK.

ROMNEYS TAX PLANS JUST SIMPLY DO NOT MAKE ANY MATHEMATICAL SENSE. ITS LIKE SAYING 1+1 = 3.

YES CAPS LOCK WAS NEEDED

Americans could care less about facts. Millions of people watch the debate. Few factcheck afterwards. Or lack of fact check haha.

Romney:

"OF COURSE MY TAX PLAN WILL ADD UP! I mean look at Obama he promised to cut the deficit in half and that never happened!"

Solid reasoning Mitt. Solid reasoning.

Debate=


Mitt Romney- rabble rablle bullshit.. more bullshit, shity plan, bullshit, more lies, nice sounding statement about america, no you're wrong, bullshit lies, nice closing statement about how besutiful america is and how nice and relaxing it is to dip oreos in milk.

Barack Obama - rabble rabble bullshit, lies, shitty plan, beautifully worded bullshit statement about america, bullshit, shitty idea, my oponent is wrong, butterflies are beautiful aren't they?, bullshit, lies, and closing with how much america means to him and how nice twinkies taste on a summer day.


Dem watching it - Regardless of anything that happened, I know that Obama won. Mitt Romney was lying through his teeth trying to screw over America with his right wing nonsense about God. He just wants to give all the money to the rich and screw the poor people. No I don't care about the facts I'm mad and just regurgitating what cnn told me to say, while feeling what cnn told me to feel.


Rep watching it - Regardless of anything that happened, I know that Romney won. Barack Obama was lying through his teeth trying to screw over America with his left wing nonsense about Obama care and welfare states and all this. He just hates America because he's a muslim and wants to put all the poor people on welfare and make us pay for them. He wants to take God out of America(ZOMG NOOOOO) No I don't care about the facts I'm just regurgitating what fox news told me to say while feeling what fox news told me to feel.


Anybody with a functioning brain watching the debates - This is fucking retarded. Fuck this I'm out.

I don't understand why the moderator doesnt have power to turn off the candidates microphone. Seriously if they talk back turn them off. If they're not answering the question turn them off. if they're butting in turn them off. there has to be some sort of moderator power.

Does anyone else find it weird that the audience is "undecided"? It's this close to the election and they still don't know who they prefer? What have they been doing the last few months

How's everyone feeling about this town hall style vs. the podiums of last week? I like the audience involvement, I think it puts a bit more pressure on each candidate. The town hall style also seems like a nice balance between the podiums and the conference table of the VP debate.

I prefer the last one. Having the 15 minute sessions or whatever they were called was interesting because the candidates had more room to freely talk it seemed like. Maybe it's just me

Well aren't you just a fucking asshole who has no idea who he is talking about. Maybe if you too actually watched CNN and listened to what she actually says once on a while ten maybe you could understand why I am not a fan. Go fucking look up what she said to Benjamin Netanyahu about Iran. She is a dumbass. Not liking someone doesn't make me materialistic you idiot.

I'm down with that, seems like it's a bit more difficult to get a rhythm going tonight. Although, I wish the candidates would address each other more directly, which is definitely difficult behind a podium. They should each be shocked every time they refer to the other in the 3rd person, it's a debate for gosh sakes!

On another note, this is an awful question on optimism...who screened these questions?

I wanna hear about environmental issues, not just energy independence.
