Bring it on, little turd. Let’s see you overreach, again. You don’t have the mental concentration to focus for 90 minutes unless it’s a Beyonce concert.

I think a key component of the “upset” were the facts and the record. The facts and the record haven’t changed in Obama’s favor. You could make the case, with further revelations regarding the Libyan disaster, things are even worse for Obama than they were. It’s a fairly easy case for Romney to prosecute.

This time, everyone’s looking for Romney to be brilliant and Obama still high. Not sure how it’s going to play but I think expectations are against Romney this time.

I don't think Romney has to be brilliant- just capable.

The left tried to define him as some ruthless business man who cared nothing about people in the lower classes. But he didn't really look like a genius in that first debate, just a thoughtful and engaged guy.

All he has to do is come across as someone who is listening and has a good grasp of the issues, and who can communicate effectively.

Those Town Hall questions are almost always softballs, so swinging for the fences usually doesn't work very well. Romney just has to be positive and he'll hold his own.

Mitt could open with “Just so you know it’s the real me....here’s my driver’s license. And my birth certificate. “

The Libyagate scandal may embarrass Obama and expose him before the debate next week. Ryan could get the ball rolling tomorrow night.

Romney will walk off stage uttering quietly... “Puny god.” As Obama lays there gasping.

So now he will over do it and look like an ass.

And in the third one his handlers will create a new image. This is what Al Gore did. In three debates, he was three different people. Too boring, too aggressive, too much makeup, no makeup...while GWB remained the same man throughout.

This could backfire with swing voters when they realize even Obama doesn't know who he is outside of what his handlers (and TOTUS) tell him what to do or say.

The Bam’s just talkin’ smack. Mitt’s got the truth on his side. Prepare for another ass-kicking more brutal than the first.

I was just watching some MSNBS online at a site that has a chat feature.
My handle was reallystupidlibtard btw haha.
Anyhow, the libs kept repeating to each other how Romney lied and he cheated, huh?, during the debates.
Weirdly entertaining and at the same time disturbing.

So, this idiot tells Romney his debate strategy BEFORE the debate? Real smart. Now Romney can prepare for an “aggressive” Obama.

He must think he is going to get the answers in advance of the debate.
Probably while in college, he got the A, when he didn’t deserve it.

But the pattern of his life now demands that he hide the truth.

"Nothing is so mistaken as the supposition, that a person is to extricate himself from a difficulty, by intrigue, by chicanery, by dissimulation, by trimming, by an untruth, by an injustice. This increases the difficulties ten fold; and those who pursue these methods, get themselves so involved at length, that they can turn no way but their infamy becomes more exposed. It is of great importance to set a resolution, not to be shaken, never to tell an untruth. There is no vice so mean, so pitiful, so contemptible; and he who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world’s believing him. This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time depraves all its good dispositions." - See "Letter to Peter Carr, August 19, 1785," in Thomas Jefferson: Writings (New York: The Library of America, 1984), pp. 814-815.

On another thread today the author of an article there said that such a person must be listened to with a "skeptical ear." Those words prompted my memory of Jefferson's wise advice to the young Peter Carr.

Tens of millions now are listening to the utterings of this President with a "skeptical ear," as they have seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears and felt in their own families the consequences of broken promises, empty words, and a false ideology as old as mankind itself--an ideology which substitutes itself and its wisdom for the Creator and "Sovereign Ruler of the Universe" (Madison) whose Divine Providence was said by America's Founders to be the source of life, liberty, and rights.

The little lies are merely part and parcel, and essential support, to the "big lie" which exists when men of arrogance substitute accumulation of coercive power for themselves for adherence to the principles of liberty underlying America's Constitution and its limitations on them.

Had so-called "progressives" not practiced decades of censorship of those ideas of liberty from textbooks and public discourse by their own dishonest methods, resulting in an electorate which could be fooled by the chicanery of "hope and change," with its accompanying denigration of the Constitution, America might have been spared from the consequences of 2008.

The President is correct: elections have consequences!

Technology makes it possible to rediscover almost every word the Founders wrote and spoke publicly, and measure the words of the redistributionist enslavers against the "self-evident" truth upon which our liberty was obtained.

So now he will over do it and look like an ass. I would say, be himself, but who know what that would look like.

Remember how Al Gore acted in the Bush/Gore debates in 2000. First he was using every high school debate tactic, like sighing throughout Bush's answers. Then in the second debate his handlers said he came off too aggressive, so they shot him up with Thorazine and he acted like he was falling asleep. In the end it all came down to, he couldn't reveal his true positions because the voters would drop him like a bad habit. President Eye Candy is in the same fix, he doesn't dare tell you what a 2nd 0bama term would really be like or you'll want no part of it. He just has to keep the masses fooled till after the election.
