(1,572 posts)95. Not a Game Changer
I agree this was not a game changer. Mittens looked like an aggressive (remember the haircutting when he was in school?). He won't be able to do this next time or the time after that. He used up all of his "zingers" mainly because he's an empty suit. There is no substance to his "policies?" and it showed last night. He went against his own tax plan. He went against his own healthcare plan. Of course, what he said were lies, but people believe what these guys say. They want to, and for some, they need to. Obama needs to come out smoking in the next debate. And, so does Biden.

As soon as I saw Romney's eyes, I knew he was on something. He was actually trying to keep them smal

"Obama got off a few great sound-bites." I missed them. Could you give an example?

Romney debate bounce fades fast. The stench of his lies endures & irritates the nostrils of voters.
