The whole time during the last Presidential debate, Mitt Romney looked like the incumbent and Barack Obama looked like a challenger trying to keep it together. More specifically, Barack Obama, when he made eye contact, looked like he was seeing and invisible hand writing “Mene, Mene, Tekel, Parsin” on the wall behind Bob Schieffer. This was a man who knows the gig is almost up.
Throughout the debate, Mitt Romney smiled, agreed, and avoided fights. Barack Obama did everything he could to get into fights. That’s not what incumbents in a comfortable lead do.
The biggest issue to come out of this debate, though, was Barack Obama totally claiming that sequestration was Congress’s fault — he signed it into law — and that it would not happen, despite it being the law of the land.
Within mere moments after the conclusion of the debate, the Obama camp already walked it back. It is never good for the President of the United States when, immediately upon conclusion of a must win debate, his campaign team is already walking back his bold statements. His jokes about sequestration will haunt him in military towns and his dismissiveness of the American Navy will hurt him in key swing states.
Mitt Romney won this debate. Barack Obama, by the end, when not distracted by the handwriting on the wall, must have secretly been contemplating how good a deal he could get from U-Haul on moving boxes.
Cheny's thought: "What goes around comes around little man"
Did you notice at the beginning of the deabate, While Obama was rebutting Romney was looking in his eyes and the two were eye to eye. Then Romney looked down and wrote on his pad. This threw Obama off as he began to stumble his words and got nervous. Maybe Romney wrote the words, “Your kingdom is divided and given to .....”
Praying non-stop until the election is won and America is back on the path of righteousness!
anyone notice how quickly Obama left his chair after the debate? He was ..” Im outta here”
Detroit: Romney was right - truthful in the debate about his position on the GM bailout.
Nice after-game report. I couldn’t watch.

Yea, the Romeny team knew before going into debate 3 that they have this election in the bag, so just appear as the President and let the little boy screw up which he did. I can just imagine the amount of top notch people spoke to Romney before going into debate 3. I am sure he spoke with Bolton and possibly, Dick Cheney.
“This was a man who knows the gig is almost up.”
.
And this is the moment that Bambi could become dangerous.
I recall someone else back in the mid 40’s who knew that his gig was up and, out of spite, brought his country down with him.
Cheney and his boss could’ve prevented the little man from ever using the toilets in the WH.
“Thou art weighed, thou art found wanting....”
Maybe Obama saw the words appearing on the tablet without Romney writing them......
Since when has Obama been bound by a law? He'll just sign another executive order.
I and others that I fellowship with believe that there may have been some intervention in the heart and mind of Obama causing him to be so proud of himself that he arrived at the 1st debate brain dead. I coined it the Nebuchadnezzar syndrome. Think about it, had Obama arrived at the 1st debate pumped to kick ass, things would be different today. That 1st debate made all the difference.
