(85,813 posts)46. then it's a meaningless one . . . anyhow, there are two narratives.
Romney didn't emerge with ONE talking point perpetuated by the media other than he bested the president in this one debate.
On the other hand, 'Romney lied' will remain, long after all of these esoteric judgments have faded. That's what critics should have spent their time on today; not bashing the president for some meaningless judgments on style that will evaporate with Romney's next demonstrated lie.

you're relying on major news sources, but the majority of Americans rely on a mix of sources
