    The American movie maker is damned lucky he wasn't targeted for assassination by the Obama administration.

    Very true. I believe you know that Obama won that debate hands down.

    Romney looked like a guy who thought he was losing the debate all night imo

    You could see it at the very end, too. Much different look to him after debate #2 compared to debate #1.

    The big difference was Obama knew who he was running against now (that and actually trying this time). Romney came out in debate #1 as a completely different candidate than the one who was in the primaries and it caught Obama off guard.

    They certainly had a head's up, but did they know beforehand? I doubt it. The issue, however, is the coverup. It's no different in that sense than Watergate.

    Good idea to play coy when getting called out on bullshit.

    My opinion about this debate was that those who were predisposed to vote for either candidate had their biases buttressed this evening and the undecideds (and I can't imagine who those morons must be) would think it was largely a draw. Again, Obama only looked better because he seemed to give a shit this time.

    I wish I knew an undecided voter so I could call and ask them directly.

    There's quite a difference between confusion and coverup, just as there's quite a difference between making a poor judgement call on the credibility of a threat (which they get tons of), and knowing of an attack.

    Why? When you can just have Frank Luntz gather them and sit them in his Ramblin' Rod-esque studio?

    Obama's out of focus and Romney's in the front?

    I agree. And the issue is they're pretending there was confusion, and there was none. For Christ's sake, State was watching the attack in real time. They knew there wasn't a protest due to that YouTube video, yet that's what they tried to sell. It was a coverup plain and simple.

    Even Oscar Snodgrass knows that Chicago politicians are filthy organizers. Especially Muslim one's name Barack Osama!

    I find it fascinating that people are now morons for being undecided, but picking your horse simply because he has an R or a D next to his title is intelligent... I think that's fucking idiotic. And I'm not undecided on the issues. The problem is I side with the candidates on different issues, so now it's just weighing those against each other. I don't have to vote tonight, so why the fuck do you care?
