We really need Obama to kick ass tonight.

This is no time for being "nice". Obama really needs to go after Rmoney, and call him out on his lies. By the end of the debate there should be no doubt in anyone's mind that Obama was the winner. I know Obama doesn't like to stoop to his opponents' level, but with slime like Shit Romney, he has to, especially with most of the media on Rmoney's side. Of course, Faux will have Rmoney winning the debate no matter how well Obama does. But anyway, tonight is do-or-die for Obama. If he screws up tonight, he's going to have a tough time convincing low-info undecided voters to vote for him, and we may well see a Romney-Ryan presidency come January, and that's something America can't afford.

In the first debate, Rmoney did just as bad as Obama(if not worse) and IMO the debate was a draw. If you listened to the media, however, Romney won handily.
