(24,411 posts)...while Romney called Obama a liar for simply reiterating what Romney has said on the campaign trail for months.
Obama was able to get many points across. He was also able to make the case that he had accomplished a great deal in the past four years--and that he inherited a mess and had garnered some important successes.
Obama did a lot of things that were right.
He's just a person, for Pete's sake. He's not a lying, kniving robot sociopath like Romney.
I'm sure he was taken aback by Romney's complete depravity. Seriously! Disavowing your own tax policy that you've had since the primary! And refusing to admit that you are voucherizing Medicare!
Obama hates the games. He hates the nonsense. He's human. He's not a neocon, warmongering, corporatist psycho like the rest of them--so yeah, he's not perfect when his opponent is displaying ridiculous, bizarre and manipulative behaviors.
Give Obama a break! He held his own even though he had to stand next to that sociopathic, lying clown.
