Let's be freaking honest, damn it

51. You must live in a blue state.

If you don't think that romney scored big tonight and that Obama lost votes, you don't live in the country with an electorate that put richard nixon and ronnie reagan in the white house and then let bush jr. have 8 years.

There aren't enough bright people in the country. romney's lies are just as good as true to way too many dummies.

We may be heading to a bad time. Obama has got to get savvy. Sure he lied, but that just doesn't matter to most voters. Read the front page of the nyt. They say that romney stretched the truth. Then they say that Obama did too. That's what every news room will be putting out. So people don't care if romney lied, because the media has them convinced that both lied the same.

He has to be called a liar on the spot with the truth told right then. Fact checking today only makes us feel good. Most people don't read that stuff.

Again, Obama was caught off guard and flat-footed because he thought republicans would play nice, that they would do things mostly honest. He still hasn't gotten it.

I agree with Robert Reich's take on this debate: http://robertreich.org
