I think what is important is how many minds were changed..

Last edited Wed Oct 3, 2012, 11:47 PM - Edit history (1)

I believe Obama could have fought more..It doesn't matter what I think..I will vote for Obama..
What matters is this:

....Will this change those independents and republicans who have already decided to vote for Obama.
...........for me the answer is no.....


No amount of Romney bullshit will change what they know
//Those people already heard the 47 percent remark..
......They have thought it over, this will not change them..They know where Romney stands and he is a liar.

cut the 4 percent who have not decided in half.....2 for each side..nothing changes.

the same way. Just because rMoney can do well in this debate doesn't change him intrinsically! Wait till the next debate! I think the President may have been distracted by his anniversary. This debate hasn't changed my mind about voting for Obama because I like him as a person and I can't stand rMoney! My 2 cents!

the so-called moderator got on stage and glad-handed the rMoney's (as though he thought) rMoney had won! That was infuriating. My husband and I talked about it and thought either the President had some pressing issues on his mind (Syria v. Turkey) or he was just glad to get out of there to celebrate his anniversary with his lovely wife!

Maybe half percent..who knows.
.We will find out in a couple of weeks.
So that 47 percent comment will be wiped out by this performance?
Oh yes..he cares about the middle class now..It is not what I think, but those that already have decided..that we hear about from first person stories of aunts, and parents and so on...admitting that they will vote for Obama cause Romney disguts them..

Will they change cause of this performance..obviously stagged..
OR ............will that 2 minute video

"It is not my job to think about them.".

Obama was terrible, but Romney's lies were unbearable. It amazes me how clueless some of the electorate are.
