HuffPost wants to declare Romney the winner with it's big headlines however...

look at all the comments below the top photo:

Romney Walked Back Multiple Positions...
Denied His Own Tax Plan...
'Dodged Almost Every Point In The Right-Wing Canon'...
Top Adviser Contradicts Romney On Health Care...
His 4 Most Misleading Moments...
No Mention Of 47%... (ok that was an Obama thing)
Or Immigration, Bain, Libya, Offshore Accounts...
WATCH FULL DEBATE

Those comments doesn't sound like a bucketful of 'WIN' to me.

However, when it comes to substance, he fell flat on his face. He beat himself.
