192. Thanks to supermod powers I have learned that you are, indeed, worthy of greater than three ***'s.

Carry on!

[JI7]

16. POLAND ?????????

[Gregorian]

17. Romney spews 30 year old, tired trickle down, cold war talking points.

[superpatriotman]

18. Ramble on, willard

In the darkest depths of Mordor...

[Rob H.]

19. Romney talking about principles is like a drunk touting the virtues of being a teetotaler

[Javaman]

21. ramblin' romney. nt

[hootinholler]

22. The moderator is officially a dickhead!

To use that to segue into the next segment and not give a chance for rebuttal.

No, dickhead is too mild

[neverforget]

23. Listening to Mitt you would think we are some 3rd world country

well it would be after a Mitt Presidency

[aquart]

24. How would a strong military have prevented 9/11, Mitt?

Since the other Dubya was ignoring the intelligence.

[Honeycombe8]

25. I'm distracted with something critical, but am trying to focus. Is O doing well? nt

[Rob H.]

34. I think he is--Romney's rambling and nonspecific

[Honeycombe8]

63. I thought so but wasn't sure. Thx. nt

[KewlKat]

26. lines are back up high with big O speaking......if this meter is any indicator....O wins

[Warren Stupidity]

27. The rambling-mitt nonsense is not working.

[MADem]

28. LOOK AT THE VISUALS!!!!!!!

Obama--calm, cool, collected, not blinking like a nut, shirt crisp white, jacket lying smoothly on his shoulders.

RMoney--blinking like an over-eager prom date, greasy hair starting to separate, flopsweatty, two thousand dollar suit bunched up on his shoulders like he slept in it. That flag pin doesn't look fer-real to me--it's too damn long. What--is he flying holiday colors on that lapel?

[librechik]

118. I think that's a cross on the flag pin

wtf?

[MADem]

224. His bunched up suit coat looks like hell! Who picked that out?

Also, whoever did his hair used too much grease, and they parted his hair to emphasize that big bald patch at the part--they would have done better to not comb that shit back...maybe he's got a big shiny spot out back, too!

[librechik]

226. don't look at the back of his pants. You don't wanna see dat!

[MADem]

227. Ha ha ha! Those gents at the table are probably catching a pungent scent. nt

[Myrina]

123. Romney is reminding me of a nervous, sweaty Nixon ...

Used car salesman who knows he needs to sell you that lemon so he can GTF down to the liquor store before it closes.

[Barack_America]

29. Oh yeah, US should've vocally supported Green Revolution. Justify their slaughter in the streets.

Which is exactly what the regime would've done.

Holy heck, Romney has the foreign policy skill of a 2 year old.

[highplainsdem]

30. Kos: Dial focus group going NEGATIVE for Romney on that last answer, particularly men.

https://twitter.com/markos/status/260553957577998337

[Michigan Alum]

35. Obama soaring above the line on the CNN

[WinkyDink]

36. "I know what it's like to create 12 million jobs"---BUT NOT IN AMERICA.

[StarryNite]

37. Mittney will create millions of jobs in China

[WinkyDink]

55. Watch out, Latin America! The Big Gringo wants your resources!

[NYC Liberal]

38. "I've got an agenda for the future"..."I will get America working again"...no specifics of course.

[high density]

39. gawd, back to the five step nonsense

[ChisolmTrailDem]

40. Romney back on domestic issues. Sheiffer nowhere to be found. eom.

[Politicub]

Clearly out of his element.

[Evergreen Emerald]

42. Red faced and giggling. N/t

[forestpath]

Someone stuff a sock in his mouth, will you?

[Notasaint]

45. OMG

He goes back to JOBS. This is supposed to be about foreign policy and America's place in the world.

[tarheelsunc]

97. Of course, he wants American companies to create jobs - in Latin America!

[Warren Stupidity]

46. Rambling mitt has a plan!

But he can't tell us what it is.

[KewlKat]

47. Can someone please tell mittens that the subject is FOREIGN POLICY

[hootinholler]

68. No shit! n/t

[KewlKat]

82. I think Mittens middle name must be CLUELESS

[Gregorian]

62. Obama has the skill and style of Mohammed Ali. Kicking Mitt with subtle comments, and schooling him.

[nolabear]

64. Sensata Sensata Sensata...HellOOOO Sensata!

[Liberal In Texas]

65. what's this got to do with foreign police?!

[onecent]

66. MITT KEEPS changing from foreign policy to budget...teachers, small business..ha ha

He has run out of things to say on foreign policy.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

223. And his solution to education is to say, "Fuck the Teacher's Union".

He thinks EVERYBODY who actually WORKS is overpaid.

[Borgnine]

67. Romney's face is morphing.

Romney is morphing into Christoher Lee's Count Dracula.

[Javaman]

69. Greece?????

[Michigan Alum]

[Javaman]

86. he's going for something "safe". LOL he lost that debate too! LOL nt

[WinkyDink]

72. If people didn't expect Romney to ignore the rules, they've not paid attention.

[flamingdem]

74. Obama on the attack brings up his record in MA !!

[ChaoticTrilby]

75. "Because the policies you're promoting don't actually help small businesses."

YESSSSSSSS!!!!!

[superpatriotman]

Energy independence (drill, baby, drill)
Trade with Latin America (cocaine, pot)
Training programs (charter schools)
Balanced budgets (which we had after Clinton)
Small business (banks won't lend to 'em)

[highplainsdem]

77. Mitt on Latin America: "Time zone, language opportunities" -- should see timezone trending on

Twitter soon.

[kalli007]

87. Ok--- I really thought I was hearing things

Nt

[WinkyDink]

102. Mitt probably speaks Spanish. ;-)

[beac]

78. Why isn't that asshole Bob-the-mod stopping

Romney from yapping on and on and on about his DOMESTIC "five point plan"???

[randome]

90. Because it's white noise that lulls him to sleep!

[Glimmer of Hope]

79. Yes. You sucked as governor!

[fishwax]

80. I guess this is no longer a foreign policy debate.

[Rob H.]

83. Obama brought up Massachusett's position as 47th state out of 50

for job creation. GOOD.

[renate]

127. oh thank goodness

I have it delayed a few minutes... I can't wait to see that!

[rbrnmw]

84. there's that deranged cheesy grin again

Romney looks like an idiot

[Blue_In_AK]

104. Isn't it awful??

I hate that smarmy grin.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

85. What was the question they're supposed to be discussing?

[Evergreen Emerald]

93. America's role in the world

[pa28]

88. I guess we're done with foreign policy? n/t

[krawhitham]

[desertduck]

92. mitt is painfully rambling on and on....

[politicaljack78]

[Rob H.]

95. O hammering R on R's disdain for teachers

Another hit for Obama.

[BlueInPhilly]

96. Why is the moderator letting them drift off?

Another potted plant

[TalkingDog]

105. Agreed.

[Glimmer of Hope]

112. What moderator?

[amandabeech]

149. this is ridiculous. I'm hitting the mute button.

[StarryNite]

98. the fucker is taking over again...

[Javaman]

99. WTF? he's allowed to bully interrupt???nt

[highplainsdem]

113. Schieffer is letting Romney run over him.

[NYC Liberal]

100. He's so proud of Mass. and yet they're rejecting him by 20+ points this election.

[MADem]

139. He is LYING--that all happened BEFORE him....and Obama pointed it out.

Also, MA Teacher's Union is one of the TOUGHEST going. He didn't push the teachers around. They OWNED his ass.

And as for Democrats and Republicans working together in MA, the way that works is that the Republicans do what the Dems want--or they don't get re-elected.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

103. Romney rolls Sheiffer, takes more time to respond out of order. eom.

[Rob H.]

106. Scheiffer wanted to move back to foreign policy, Romeny basically says, "Not yet"

Useless moderator.

[beac]

109. Once again weak Bob allows Romney to bulldoze over the rules.

Welcome to Jim Lehrer status, Bob you fraud!!

[forestpath]

110. Coddling Mitt again.

[ChaoticTrilby]

111. URRRGH. That moderator is pissing me off.

He almost always seems to only interrupt Obama.

[KewlKat]

114. would the fucking moderator, moderate PLEASE.....mitt took over again.

[KewlKat]

135. ah the money....look at my website to understand how we do the magic.

[Javaman]

116. that's because mittens has a Democratic super majority. It had nothing to do with him. nt

[hue]

119. STFU Rmoney--->twisting reality again!!!

[SaveAmerica]

120. Let me finish telling my lies!!

[Michigan Alum]

121. Mittens needs to called abt avoiding talking about foreign policy. C'mon Bob!

[nolabear]

122. Is it just me or did Mitt memorize this? He seems to be somewhere else.

[WinkyDink]

124. He's bragging about the same MA scholarship crap again. Obama called him out, but Romney countered.

[StarryNite]

125. Before he took office!

[Barack_America]

126. "That was 10 years before you took office"

Romney "Excuse me,I'm in the middle of a talking point".

[renate]

202. he looks rattled

The way he's angry but smiling... creepy creepy dude.

[Barack_America]

219. I know you're running a few minutes behind.

Prepare to when you get to the size of our Navy.

[politicaljack78]

128. Romnesia taking credit for Binders full of education, 10 years before he took office.

[sfpcjock]

129. The midwest pipeline project is just very dirty Canadian oil that is sold on the world market.

It doesn't make the U.S. "energy independent," and will result in massive spills of sandy oil. Yuck!

[sfpcjock]

217. Romney will attand a Seder in Boca if Israel is attacked.

[TampaKeeper]

130. Moderator is allowing Mitt to take over again

And WTF happened to foreign policy?

[nobodyspecial]

171. It's definitely not helping him

He's stutter and bumbling all over the place and hasn't made a cohesive point yet.

[rbrnmw]

131. he said Publicans and democrats

for anyone who has read the Bible the gaffe is ironic

[Gregorian]

132. Good for the moderator. Where's the beef, Mitt? The math doesn't work, dingbat!!!

[bullwinkle428]

133. Schieffer : "WHERE'S THE MONEY, LEBOWSKI?"

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

134. Mitt is avoiding foreign policy like the plague - next he'll mention dressage

[randome]

136. "Come to our website!"

[Grown2Hate]

137. Mitt seems to start AND finish each segment...

[spanone]

138. again mitt. how are you going to do it.

[NYC Liberal]

140. Why is Mittens blinking so much?

[Hayabusa]

141. "Forget how we'll pay for it"

"we want a strong military!"

[Rob H.]

142. Asking Romney how he'll pay for military increases

Tells Scheiffer, "Come to our website," talks about cutting programs.

[SaveAmerica]

143. He invited the moderator to go to the web page instead of answering the question

[spooky3]

168. "I'll get back to you, Katie."

[SaveAmerica]

228. BRB!! (Wink)

[Javaman]

144. mittens is on acid. nt

[MadBadger]

145. "come look at my website for specifics" Not very popular response

[TCJ70]

184. I don't know how you can think that's...

...an acceptable answer during a debate.

[cabot]

146. Mitt's an asshole

"look at my website." meh.

[highplainsdem]

165. +1,000,000,000

[KewlKat]

147. lines are tanking for mitt

[tarheelsunc]

148. Let Romney keep talking. He sounds stupid.

When he said "eliminate Obamacare", the CNN undecided voter lines PLUMMETED.

[spooky3]

150. CNN viewers do not like Mitch's dissing "Obamacare" - they didn't last time, either

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

151. Yes go to Mitt's website

Then you can see how many times he's flip flopped.

[oppressedproletarian]

153. Mod is an outrage

[Rosa Luxemburg]

154. ROMNEY CAN"T ANSWER where he's getting the money for his BIG military

[politicaljack78]

155. President looks cool and confident, Romnesia seems lost in the fog.

[Javaman]

156. cut the motor mouth off. he had his 2 minutes. nt

[Rob H.]

157. Romney won't shut the hell up!

You've had your time, jackass!

[StarryNite]

158. Shut the FUCK up Mitt!

[xxqqqzme]

159. Appears to me

Romnesia is terminal!

[Michigan Alum]

160. Romney going below the Line on CNN

[Evergreen Emerald]

169. How is obama's line?

[PCIntern]

170. Trough end out, that mofo,

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

172. Good!

[beac]

176. Thanks for keeping us TV-free folks updated.

[trailmonkee]

161. all together now... 'And Also in Math'

[hue]

162. "for the poor"!! ewwwww! I can't stand Rmoney!!! Pls take over Pres. O!!!!

[mainer]

164. Yay, moderator finally asking the tough question

and Romney says he'll cut domestic budget to give us mink-lined military.

[ChaoticTrilby]

166. "Now, he wants to spend more on military spending that the military is not asking for."

Nail him, Obama. Right in his gold-plated jaw!

[KewlKat]

167. how many times does the President have to point out that mitt is a liar......don't people get it yet

[onecent]

173. mitt dipshit says medicare is for the POOR?????? That's medicaid..isn't it?? dumb ass

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

182. He's confused.

[tclambert]

221. Poor people, old people, middle class people, non-millionaires . . . same thing.

Not Mitt's donor base.

[hootinholler]

174. Don't the states already run medicaid? n/t

[WinkyDink]

175. Romney's time-line was right, but he shouldn't brag about that scholarship:

http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/science/2012/10/romney_john_and_abigail_adams_scholarship_program_why_merit_aid_backfired.html

[AlinPA]

177. Shieffer is getting rolled by Romney. He won't shut up. Rambling....

[Michigan Alum]

178. Obama off the chart on CNN line!

[NYC Liberal]

179. "Strategy and capabilities, NOT just money" - Obama on military.

[trailmonkee]

180. ok, now he's starting to crack Obama up.... he's going to go full Biden soon

[trailmonkee]

193. bam! congress slam

[nolabear]

181. Oh thanks GOD! Some facts and a vision! I was getting lost in the fog.

[NYC Liberal]

183. "Saved the Olympics" -- with federal money, Mitt.

[riderinthestorm]

185. Please go to Official Debate thread #4!!!

[bullwinkle428]

186. Balanced Olympic budget with gov't money, assclown!

[politicaljack78]

187. The FOG is causing Romney to turn red....the Olympics lie again. He's going to balance the

budget, yeah right, time to bring up cutting the middle class deductions and shifting the tax burden.

[amandabeech]

188. Romney's strategy is to talk about what he wants without regard to the question.

I doubt that we're the only ones watching who want to see a debate on foreign policy.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

189. ROMNEY has no clue about the military!!! OMG!

[Hayabusa]

190. That's because navies are generally...

obsolete when it comes to modern warfare. The big money is in air power.

[Hayabusa]

197. Mr. President, are you reading my posts?

[desertduck]

191. uuuugh. bob needs to do his job. moderate already, jeez!

at least he us bringing it back to the military and foreign policy.

ZING!!!!

[Rosa Luxemburg]

206. Brilliant!

[beac]

212. Way to try and start a world war Bob, you idiot!!

He's a fucking disgrace. This should be the end of his career. What a jackass.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

199. Hey Romney we have aircraft carriers and planes land on them!

this is so funny

[2theleft]

200. It is not a game of battleship where we have to count ships

[nolabear]

201. NICE. The RW will call that condescending. No horses or bayonets either...

[DFab420]

203. Holy shit! Lol its not a game of BattleSHIP!

[ChaoticTrilby]

204. "We have these things call 'air craft carriers' with planes that land on them!"

and etc.

Oh, Obama. This is wonderful.

[JTFrog]

205. Bayonets! Bazingo!

[zonkers]

208. Obama just sunk Mitt's Battleship.

[AlinPA]

209. Obama: "We have these things called aircraft carriers", he slammed Romney.

[nolabear]

210. ROTFL! We've visited the website quite a bit...

That's just embarrassing.

[riderinthestorm]

"we've been to your website and the math still doesn't add up"...

[Spitfire of ATJ]

220. Well, first of all I,..I,..I I....

[cstanleytech]

225. And now mitt thinks it was a good idea to go in and get Bin Laden. Can anyone say flip flop?
