President Obama should have called Romney on the bullshit lies that Romney was spewing out, but the President stood there saying nothing and occasionally shaking his head like he agreed with Romney. I was crushed by the debate. Regardless of the moderator, President Obama can't let what happened last night happen again, doing that will rip the guts out of his supporters. As soon as Romney started lying, President Obama should have attacked Romney's lies and de constructed each lie one by one.

Doesn't the moderator have rules to go by? He should have enforced the rules.
