25. That final line kinda crystalized how I am feeling.

“I was really kind of hoping Romney would say some stuff that I’d understand, as far as what his plans are,” Ms. Jernigan said. “And I don’t feel that this has clarified anything for me.”

Ms. Gardner, a homemaker and dog breeder, said, “I felt that Obama lost some of his passion. This time, when he was speaking, he just didn’t have that.”

Romney didn't clarify anything, just doubled down on things we already know are either not true or impossible, although he did seem less robotic than usual. And Obama seemed more stutter-y than usual and rather tired. And OMG, the moderator.... It was a frustrating debate, and it seemed like it would be more likely to make voters tune out than vote for a particular candidate.
