1st of two part contest for 3rd debate. How many seconds will there be between Romney lies

[stevenleser]

I have a two part contest for 3rd debate, In part one, how many seconds will there be between Romney lies.

In the second Presidential debate, Romney told a lie every 79 seconds. In the Vice Presidential debate, Paul Ryan told a lie every 100 seconds. In the first Presidential debate, Romney told a lie every 84 seconds.

I am in at 75 seconds between lies for Romney in the third and final debate.

In addition to selecting a poll option, please respond with an exact number.

1. Considering he lies while his lips are moving and he will talk 90 mph

And then he will inturrupt the President constantly, it will be a whole pile of lies.

2. On twitter, I'm calling this my two part #Romnesia contest.

3. Romney doesn't know enough about foreign policy to make up lies fast enough to do the Gish Galop

Please note that the format is identical to the first debate, which didn't end well for Obama.

I don't think that's a problem. Obama will be prepared for that, and this format keeps that asshole from getting in the President's face.

The idea of 10-minute segments makes a lot more sense for foreign policy than for domestic policy. In fact, I'd say it is a big advantage for Obama to have topics that will be covered in some depth. Romney will play out his entire understanding in the first 20 seconds of each topic, and could look pretty weak for his remaining 4 minutes on each segment.

6. There is a cumulative effect though, as my second part of my contest illustrates

We're closing in on 100 lies in the four debates. I think the odds Romney will pass 100 lies is close to 90% as we are at 82 lies for the two of them already.

The Public has had so many lies thrown at them, its hard to counter the ones already told plus the new ones that are coming.

8. In each two minute time slot robmeandu will utter three different lies.

That is actually part of his coaching for the debate.

24 lies in 41 minutes =

24 lies in 2460 seconds =

a lie every 102.5 seconds! As bad as that is, its an improvement for Romney

The only person who guessed over 100 seconds was Bluestreak!

13. I didn't figure he knew enough about the world to make up lies fast enough

I didn't expect him to simply parrot everything Obama said.

In that sense, just about everything Romney said was a lie, or at least disingenuous.
