No, he's not. He went through a long roundabout non-answer to that kid about the jobs and said, "I know how to create jobs" and...left it at that. Okay, if you know how, TELL US.
Obama's fighting back more this time, though, and had a good remark about gas prices at Romney, so hooray for that.
romney's reminding me of perot right now. "can i finish?" "you had your turn, let me talk now!" if he wants to come off like a child, he's doing a great job.

He does seem completely uncertain of how he's supposed to be doing this debate. OR he thinks he's still in PBS land and can walk all over the moderator, which clearly he can't.
So do I. It seems pretty intense tonight.

Romney's on the defensive tonight, and because he hasn't spent 4 years having shit thrown at him, he's not handling it as smoothly as Obama.

OK, I had seen the Romney gazing longingly at people Tumblr before, but THIS is ridiculous.

that last debate was at least a 80 - 20 win for Romney
Obama recently even said Romney did better than him, I can't understand anyone not calling it a Romney win.
Tonight Obama is doing much better, Romney is even in the polls or perhaps a bit ahead. Tonight I think this could end up as a small Romney win. Say, 55% calling it for Romney.
Only because of the style and fake promises he can make in a sincere voice. Obama has a more difficult task in that he has to defend the last 4 years, and even though things are improving. The basic question, are you satisfied with the way things are now?
Well these 'undecideds' and swing voters seem to think 'change' is one option, and status quo the other? Change sounds a little better.

That's so annoying. In Mitt's world people follow his rules, not the other way around.

Romney looks like shit in the early going. I think he'll settle in, though.

BAH! I have to say, Obama kinda threw away the Big Bird card just now.

He used the Big Bird thing all wrong. He should have pointed out that PBS is like .0000000001% of the budget instead of falling back on a meme.
Still a finger roll at least.
I think that everyone here knows that Obama lost the first debate. If there are posts suggesting otherwise, I haven't seen them.
I don't know what debate you're watching tonight, but Romney winning it? Yarite.

He just said "talking about numbers that don't add up ... instead of cutting the deficit he's doubled it... we've gone from $10 trillion of debt to $16 trillion of debt" 
Wouldn't this be the perfect time to mention the 47% thing? Or has he already done it?

In recent to the sketchy deal comment.
That was fantastic.

It's really kind of too late for that now. Romney already apologized for it (as I recall) and it would seem like Obama was kind of desperate (IMO) as so many people pointed the missed opportunity from the first debate out.

Agreed.
I just love how he's constantly insisting, "I know how to run/do things" and then not laying out actual examples to prove it. Obama is actually listing things. Laying out plans or ideas.

Right, right.
I'm fairly sympathetic to Obama with regards to the price of education. I did manage to pay my way through college during his first term, due in large part to Pell grants and the like. It's laughably overpriced still, but he did an alright job of putting a bandage on an open wound.

"These are not just women's issues. These are family issues."
Word. Well said, Obama.
Romney's answer to the women in the workforce thing was...entertaining.

Romney is avoiding the most important question of the night to act like a whiny bitch.

"How are you unlike Bush?"
"I'll answer that in a second, but I'm pretty sure that I'm supposed to have more time on the clock"
"No, sir."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, sir."
"I think you're wrong, but anyways....CONTRACEPTIVES!"

He didn't have two full minutes of differences.
