3. More accurately, how could one NOT be prepared to debate Joe Isuzu?

Really. The man who has constantly reinvented his positions over the last 20 years is your opponent, and you are NOT prepared for that? Are you fucking kidding me?

I am angrier than I was eight hours ago.

As I said over in GD, this was not fucking complicated.

I was going to post a "how to" two days ago, but I thought it couldn't be more painfully obvious.

I thought it went without saying.

You say that he's shaking the etch a sketch and every time the guy makes up one of his positions, call him a fucking fabulist and tell everyone you have a website set up (hint: barackobama.com) where you can compare what he said six days ago with what he said tonight.

How can this be fucking complicated?

That really is beyond your powers of conception?

5. It's not mean spirited and my anger isn't with you

it's real talk about a performance that was simply unacceptable.

Some of us are working way too damn hard and sacrificing way too much for our guy to punt that hard on the biggest night of the campaign.

You can't ask ask ask ask and then roll over like a damn wimp.

DU is in full denial mode.

The entire center to left is calling Obama's performance pathetic.

My FB, as one who actually follows what the heck I post (you wouldn't know, and I wouldn't expect you to - I post in GD) would expect is like 90% liberal friends. Maybe 95%. And they are as disappointed in Obama as I am. It is ugly.

It is hard for me to wait for the next three days to happen to see how the hell they can turn around this pitiful non-showing.

6. Our President wasn't himself!

He looked very tired and I was surprised at him looking down. Really folks did this look like the President we see defending his policies at rallys? My expectations were high but, Obama is capable of high. What happened? Did Romney totally overwhelm him with the lies? He should be used to the etch-a-sketch man and what happened to the President's humor? We saw a weak, tired, and bewildered President on stage. Yet, we all love him. I wanted to go up on stage and hold up my shield.
