Keep this in mind about Romney and his "debating skills".

It's true that Romney had good debates during the primary season. But don't forget that he shared the stage with some very weak competition and never had a real one-on-one since 2002 when he ran for Governor of Massachusetts.

5. A good part of Romney's "debating skills" is his ability to tell bald-faced lies.

Obama: Gov Romney has said that his job is not to worry about 47% of the American people.

Romney: I never said any such thing. The president is just misrepresenting my position again.

for most of primary season. Gingrich was the only one with a higher-than-room-temp IQ. I exempt Huntsman because he vanished so quickly. Bachmann, Cain, Crazy Uncle Liberty and Santorum? If their brains were petrol it wouldn't collectively power a gnat's motorcycle half way around a BB.
