I guess Obama isnt lying. He is just clueless
There goes Mitt flopping on what he had previously said. So will social security be revised or not?
Romney has Obama cornered. Obama is falling fast! Thank goodness! We don't need anymore people on food stamps!
Romney is stomping the chump, making him look like the fool he's been as he buried us over 4 years.
Obama who...? oh he is looking down again... no eye contact towards Romney!!! It's almost like a teacher ( which Obama fights for, right???) leaving his/her classroom in the middle of a lesson! I would not be suprised if Obama put his head down and just walked off stage!!!
The 2012 debates are being run in a very biased manner. Jim Lehr is letting the President talk as much as he wants and interupts the challenger. That shows a media bias.
Yeah Mitt get tough on China tell em to bring back those jobs you outsourced to them ...
I don't trust Gov. Romney or Congressman Ryan running this country. Period!!!!!
CP to the sky...too funny...this guy has no class....and is stumbling/fumbling all over the place...what a joke!!!
Guys tell me if i am out in left field, but is the president getting smashed in this debate?
Obama will WIN the Election...
I'll take a business man in the White House.
Nice try, right wing bloggers. Romney is all over the map and repeating lies that have been debunked over and over again. He's got nothing to offer.
Where are Mitt's specifics? Does anyone trust anything a politician says that cannot be independently verified? All we know about Mittens is that he guts companies for a living...pivot again Mitt.
Hey, Lucky to have a job...I just paid $4:29 this morning and it was $4:49 this afternoon on my way home...this guy is TOAST!!!!!
mitt wants a private insurance plan...he can afford to shop!
Try living in Mass with the law of having to have health insurance that good ol Mitt put in place. Do I pay my mortgage or buy health insurance??? Thanx Mitt. You're a real friend & really care about middle class
I thought Obama was going to be different. I kept waiting for 4 years for something good to happen. I lost hope when they passed the new medical care program (I hate the term Obamacare) when no one knows how it works and how it will really help. The more I read, the more I think it will hurt business. Obama is not proving himselft now either. He really doesn't seem to have a firm grasp on the topics. I am embarrasses to say I voted for him last time. What was I thinking!
Go Mitt! You are making the president look bad like he really is!
Kool-Aid drinkers are on board...
Congressman Ryan is an extremely intelligent individual. He and Gov Romney are good for our country. Intelligent businessmen.....finally.
Go Obama!! Romney is your classic GOP snake. Putting a CEO in the whitehouse after all this? Lets hope Americans arent stupid.
Mitt smiles or grins like a child after he spews a memorized response. Still a robot. He has also flipped several times on issues already.
Specific vs generalities. Romney vs Obama. Period. Obama will get re-elected and we will have a stagnate economy unless it stalls again.
Mitt is in control
