Anyone who thinks Romney "cleared the Commander in Chief bar" last night is either incompetent... [View all]

...or completely full of shit. The man they are talking about on that stage last night was a blathering creampuff who would have been eaten alive by any one of our enemies, let alone all of them. General Custer was a better leader in battle. Anyone who did not see his terrified, sweating and twitching awareness of just how deep in over his head he was before the world did not watch the debate.

Congratulations, President Obama. Four more years.
