Obama: Guy On Stage Was Not The ‘Real Mitt Romney’

16. President Obama at his best

That's the thing. President Obama isn't at his best in these crappy debate formats. Put him out there though, talking to real people, and it's all stellar.

Here's hoping he comes back strong at the town hall debate. I knew Romney would do well in last night's format, but I find it hard to picture him connecting to people one on one. But who knews? I thought he looked like a bully last night. Reminded me of how all the men in my family "debate" at the dinner table, i.e., "If we disagree, I'll just talk louder and louder so you can't put forward an argument and then I WIN!"

Except, it's a grand illusion, because they rarely persuade anyone. Instead, most of us eventually just wander off and let the blowhards blow at each other. That's what Mitt reminded me of last night.
