We new going in the that press will say Mitt won

[awake]

So why are we surprised, I have been watching the clips of the debate being replayed on MSNBC and the clips make Obama looks more Presidential and Mitt does not come off well at all. As this plays out over the next days the sound bites will not help Mitt.

1. Yeah, we knew going in.

No surprise that the MSM, whose ratings go up during a 'close race', would fall all over themselves declaring that the race just got closer thanks to Mitt's performance.

But it ain't any closer. And we all know that, too.

2. Mike Papantonio called it this afternoon, the media would call it for Romney no matt er what. The

media needs a horse race for ratings. How could anyone be surprised about Tweety, he got tingles up his leg when he looked at W in his flight suit , he is a baffoon.

3. I was just watching Charlie Rose

and in a moment of candor, the journalists at the round table had a big old laugh about how if it ain't a horse race, they don't get paid. Their livelihood comes from advocating that shitty narrative that the race is always close and the lead is always fleeting.

Fuck the media!

4. We didn't know WillPitt would say it, though
