The first debate was Opposition Research for Obama.

[cliffordu]

Now he has ONE of the Romney personas to attack.

(Just remember He roped a dope the Clintons in '08. )

(NOTE: I LOVE Hillary as Sec of State, and, in 2016, our next Prez.)

I do believe all he has to do is contrast the Romney that shows up tonight with the one that clowned around last time and then......

............

For the Panic Peeps:

When the fuck was the last time Obama was ill prepared for one goddamned thing??

That was what bothered me about the last one.

Ill prepared my ass. There was a motive there.

Rope a dope is when you let your opposition wear themselves out by trying to beat the shit our of you until the 10th round and then you bring the pain.

I expect the kind of quiet, completely devastating pain that Obama used on Trump the night he killed Bin Laden.

3. I thought it was perfectly obvious that was what was going on.

Once it became clear Rmoney was chucking veracity and the rules overboard, and Lehrer was not going to do anything about it. there was little else to do. You don't want to pursue the wrong strategy, and you don't want to get down in the mud with Rmoney. Just because the media has a cow, that does not mean you should too.

This tonight is going to be very interesting. I guess I'm the only guy in America who doesn't know what will happen, but is not very worried.

4. Kicking this again.

Just because I was fucking right.
