... Debates can be tricky. You're talking to audience members and not your opponent. However, there will be plenty of time to argue or correct the Rombey lies.

I anticipate that Romney will be as sweet as pie. He will expect Obama to come out swinging and he will deny Obama the opportunity to be aggressive by playing Mr Nicey nice.

I'm sure Obama has planned for Romney's games and will counter.

I do believe that Obama will kick major butt, and I think the format favors Obama. Romney doesn't like to be questioned by the commoners.
