"We're four years closer to a nuclear Iran."

Yes Governor, time is linear.

Oh I think giant douche is well in front to be reelected.

The turd sandwich supporters can enjoy the political wilderness for another 4 years.

"They sell us about this much stuff every year. We sell them about this much stuff every year."

Sorry, Romney, you can't do a bar graph with your hands.

This 'all politicians suck' thing is boring. There is nothing wrong with saying one person or party is genuinely better than the other.

Predictable pessimism. meh

Wait what? Romney doesn't want to invest in companies? But wants to invest in research? How does he think research becomes profitable?

Romney pretending to care about people without money.

e: And apparently, Romney's getting last word.

Romney tried again and again to make that "Four years closer to a nuclear Iran" a soundbite. Unfortunately it's not very good and it doesn't make sense. It tries to do two things; spread fear and blame Obama for it - and it fails on both counts.

It implies that a nuclear Iran is inevitable, and on that is basically saying "in the last four years, exactly four years have passed." Plus it doesn't exactly make sense to blame Obama for this unless you're implying that under someone else the continuing passage of time would have miraculously ground to a halt.

Didn't catch much of the debate. I hear there were mentions of bayonets and horses. Meme material to the same degree as 'Folders of Women' or no?

This entire debate stank of Romnesia.

Romney was bitching about the size of the navy. Obama countered that ship capabilities today are different than ship capabilities in 1917 and added the "we have fewer horses and bayonets today too. This isn't a game of Battleship." Conservatives are already starting to bitch about it.

I did see a Twitter account with nearly 1000 followers that popped up called 'Horses and Bayonettes'. I don't think it has much lasting power though.

Moderation in these debates has been piss-poor, overall. Today, Romney was allowed to monologue for obscene lengths of time and was not really pressed to answer questions posed about foreign policy.

e:
Romney early in debate: "WAAAH DON'T ATTACK ME"
Romney closing statement: *political attack*

e2: I wonder how many families these debates have broken.
