I did not watch as I was driving and listened on the radio. I think the media spin heads actually lost this debate for Obama. And they continue to do so. The President is extremely smart and his brain works faster than his mouth which leads to his stammering, something that happens to a lot of smart people. Who knows what they wil do tonight.
