In the words of my mentor, the late great radio talk show host Jerry Williams, "It's all over!"
For the first time in four years, perhaps the first time in his life, President Barack Obama stepped into a situation in which he was not protected by a phalanx of adoring syncopates, yes men and women, and by a solid column of lap-dog media figures.
Barack Obama stood alone without his tele-prompter and with a weak and inept moderator Tom Lehrer, who was supposed to run interference but who was shunted aside early on. Obama was forced to stride out onto the field of battle with Mitt Romney, a normal person who is used to brickbats because that is exactly what has been thrown at him his entire professional life.
Obama spouted all the cliched lies that have become the stock and trade of the left and the Democrats this campaign season and Romney was more than happy to name them as such. Perhaps the best line in the debate was when Romney stated to Obama: "I have no idea what you're talking about!"
Obama exposed himself as a leftist which means that the voters now have a clear choice between two candidates who represent two opposite ideologies. The most glaring problem for Obama, besides the exposure of who he is politically, was the emptiness of his repeated claims that he was going to do all these wonderful things.
Why then, viewers were likely to ask themselves, or their family members sitting on the couch watching and listening, why didn't he do this over the last four years? Why indeed!
Romney will, I predict, win by a landslide. Hallelujah!!!!

Obama DID bring his ‘A’ game. That steaming pile of vacuous Leftist drivel is exactly what he believes in.
Proof that “Affirmative Action” doesn’t even protest the POTUS!
I thought the moderator was Jim Lehrer.
And what the heck is a syncopate?
All the Pro-Obama posts to my Facebook page have disappeared. I even checked the pages of those I Un-friended. They have nothing to say.
It’s not over until the fat lady sings.
Not the first time-—on a lesser scale remember when the Bam was involved with ObamaCare talks with Repubs back in 2009 or so. Paul Ryan was so crisp and factual with his analysis that Bam didn’t even engage him. Romney did the same thing with similar results. This ain’t old man McLame he can roll over anymore in the debates.
I hope so: but I remember Jerry Williams and Howie Carr saying that about Bill Clinton when the Gennifer Flowers story broke.
"Stick a fork in Clinton he's done."
Didn't quite work out that way did it? -tom
To anyone paying attention, it was clear from 2008 onward that Obama was an average intellect, an average speaker, with below-average experience and knowledge.
Maybe a few more people are noticing now, but many Americans still have too much emotion and feeling invested in Obama to give up now.
Is a syncopate a balding sycophant?;-)
With nothing to ‘insulate’ him, nothing to shield him or to redirect attention elsewhere, with nothing to diminish his patently obvious deficiencies and lack of ability… it was truly a telling and embarrassing performance.
It was just like watching a puppy walking into a leaf shredder!!!
In his closing remarks, Obama spoke of "channeling" as a means of achieving something called "fairness."
Mr. President, just who is that exceptionally-qualified person/persons who do the "channeling" and by what authority? Certainly, the authority is not to be found in the United States Constitution!
America's Founders' principle of freedom for individual enterprise brought America from the crude tools of ancient Europe to the most free and prosperous destination for oppressed peoples. See the following essay excerpted from "Our Ageless Constitution," a 292-page history of the ideas of liberty in America.
"Agriculture, manufactures, commerce, and navigation, the four pillars of our prosperity, are the most thriving when left most free to individual enterprise." - Thomas Jefferson
"The enviable condition of the people of the United States is often too much ascribed to the physical advantages of their soil & climate .... But a just estimate of the happiness of our country will never overlook what belongs to the fertile activity of a free people and the benign influence of a responsible government." - James Madison
America's Constitution did not mention freedom of enterprise per se, but it did set up a system of laws to secure individual liberty and freedom of choice in keeping with Creator-endowed natural rights. Out of these, free enterprise flourished naturally. Even though the words "free enterprise' are not in the Constitution, the concept was uppermost in the minds of the Founders, typified by the remarks of Jefferson and Madison as quoted above. Already, in 1787, Americans were enjoying the rewards of individual enterprise and free markets. Their dedication was to securing that freedom for posterity.
The learned men drafting America's Constitution understood history - mankind's struggle against poverty and government oppression. And they had studied the ideas of the great thinkers and philosophers. They were familiar with the near starvation of the early Jamestown settlers under a communal production and distribution system and Governor Bradford's diary account of how all benefited after agreement that each family could do as it wished with the fruits of its own labors. Later, in 1776, Adam Smith's INQUIRY INTO THE NATURE AND CAUSES OF THE WEALTH OF NATIONS and Say's POLITICAL ECONOMY had come at just the right time and were perfectly compatible with the Founders' own passion for individual liberty. Jefferson said these were the best books to be had for forming governments based on principles of freedom. They saw a free market economy as the natural result of their ideal of liberty. They feared concentrations of power and the coercion that planners can use in planning other peoples lives; and they valued freedom of choice and acceptance of responsibility of the consequences of such choice as being the very essence of liberty. They envisioned a large and prosperous republic of free people, unhampered by government interference.
The Founders believed the American people, possessors of deeply rooted character and values, could prosper if left free to:

Such a free market economy was, to them, the natural result of liberty, carried out in the economic dimension of life. Their philosophy tended to enlarge individual freedom - not to restrict or diminish the individual's right to make choices and to succeed or fail based on those choices. The economic role of their Constitutional government was simply to secure rights and encourage commerce. Through the Constitution, they granted their government some very limited powers to:
Adam Smith called it "the system of natural liberty." James Madison referred to it as "the benign influence of a responsible government." Others have called it the free enterprise system. By whatever name it is called, the economic system envisioned by the Founders and encouraged by the Constitution allowed individual enterprise to flourish and triggered the greatest explosion of economic progress in all of history. Americans became the first people truly to realize the economic dimension of liberty.

There’s three more debates total, leads almost never grow after a debate, they stay or shrink, even if the guy does poorly, so no it ain’t over.
Artist: Willie Nelson lyrics
Title: The Party’s Over
Turn out the lights
The party’s over
They say that
All good things must end
Call it tonight
The party’s over
And tomorrow starts
The same old thing again
But the crazy crazy party
Never seen so many people
Laughing dancing
Look at you you’re having fun
But look at me
I’m almost cryin’
That don’t keep her love from dyin’
Misery cause for me the party’s over
Turn out the lights...
Once I had a love undyin’
I didn’t keep it but I tried
Life for me was just one party
And then another
I broke her heart so many times
I had to have my parting wife
I had to have my party
Why broke her heart so many times
But one day she said
Sweetheart the party’s over
Turn out the lights...
I unfriended a “friend” who defended the protestors who trashed our beautiful WI. capitol, saying “there are two sides to every story”. My daughter is still mad at me, saying that was too severe of an action.
Hmmm..Sounds like you cull Libs too massgopguy. It’s very cleansing, isn’t it?
I don't know if she was singing but I'll bet she was beating the cr@p out of Barack in the back of the Presidential limo last night........
Someone who engages in syncopation?
I disagree wholeheartedly! This was an opening skirmish in which our candidate did well. There is no end to what the commie libs will do to keep power. We need to stay vigilant and encourage every voter in a swing state to vote for Romney to start the process of saving the nation. There will be many “October surprises” in the coming weeks in an effort to prop up Obama!
