The results are in of my debate contest where people were asked to guess how many seconds would pass between each Romney lie. Mitt Romney told 31 lies in 41 minutes last night That equates to a lie every 79 seconds.

My facebook friend Darcy DeAngelo-Woolsey nailed it exactly and deserves special mention. Also, the person posting under the handle JeffHead on Democratic Underground guessed between 75 and 79 seconds between lies. Congrats to Darcy and JeffHead!
