It's No Wonder Obama Was Off His Game

Rompod was throwing out so much shit I'm surprised the audience wasn't getting splashed. The switch from Mitt Romney the Conservative Candidate to Mitt Romney the Cuddly Compassionate was the equivalent of pulling the rug out from under Obama. And Obama slipped.

But I don't fault him for being a bit off his game. He expected to debate Mitt Romney; instead he got a pod person. I fully expect he will learn from this experience, and will proceed to demolish Romney at the next debate.

2. I agree

How do you debate someone who completely switches their game. If he studied for the other Romney not this one. And to just deny everything he's said for the past year. How do you respond to that.
I do think the media should have called Romney out for the freak that he is. Who does that. This is the guy who might be president and they let him get away with, he's crazy.

4. The notes Obama was taking during the debate were things to bash Romney with in his

campaign speeches in the coming days. There was plenty of fodder being produced for Obama to work with.
I noticed he was shaking his head yes from time to time and smiling.....and thinking he just got another bit of goodies.

8. The debate style Romney used: "Gish Gallop"

A wise DUer posted it yesterday but it got lost in all the debate-night stuff:

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Gish_Gallop

Basically it's speed-lying - burying your opponent in so much lies, obfuscation, and bullshit that they cannot possibly rebut it all.
